[Verse 1] We never met face to face But I feel like I know you well You have the place next to my place I could see you by ringing the bell But I hear you through the wall [Verse 2] I hear you in the morning shower How can you sing that song at that hour? Press my ear to the wall to hear coffee perk And watch from the window when you leave for work And I hide behind the wall [Bridge] Your boyfriend is really a jerk (Jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk) Will he ever learn to play the saxophone? He plays that same song over and over Your boyfriend is really a jerk (Jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk) Watches daytime shows, the sound is loud Watches daytime shows, watches daytime shows I can't wait 'til you're home from work [Verse 3] I like Saturdays best of all When your exercise records play The pictures shake on my wall Send a dozen leg lifts my way 'Cause I feel you through the wall [Verse 4] I heard how you balked when they raised the rent It was the closest I've come to losing you Just fifty a month and it's money well spent To keep you beside me it's the least I can do 'Cause I need you through the wall [Bridge] Your boyfriend is really a jerk (Jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk) Will he ever learn to play the saxophone? He plays that same song over and over Your boyfriend is really a jerk (Jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk) Watches daytime shows, the sound is loud Watches daytime shows, watches daytime shows I can't wait 'til you're home from work [Outro] And I feel you through the wall And I need you through the wall And I need you through the wall
