[Verse 1]
There's been some hard feelings here
About some words that were said
(Hard feelings)
Been some hard feelings here and what is more
There's been a bloody purple nose
(Yeah)
And some bloody purple clothes
That were messing up the lobby floor

[Chorus 1]
It's just apartment house rules
So all you 'partment house fools
Remember one man's ceiling is another man's floor
(Another man's floor)
One man's ceiling is another man's floor

[Verse 2]
There's been some strange goin's on
And some folks have come and gone
Like the elevator man, he don't work no more
I heard a racket in the hall
I thought I heard a call
But I never opened up my door

[Chorus 2]
It's just apartment house sense
It's like apartment house rents
Remember one man's ceiling is another man's floor
(Another man's floor)
One man's ceiling is another man's floor
[Verse 3]
There's an alley in the back of my building
Where some people congregate in shame
I was walking with my dogs
The night was black with smog
When I thought I heard somebody call my name
Ooh

[Piano Solo]

[Outro]
Remember one man's ceiling is another man's floor
One man's ceiling
