Big House
by The Swirling Eddies

Album: Sacred Cows

I don't know where you lay your head, or where you call your home,
I don't know where you eat your meals, or where you talk on the phone,
I don't know if you got a cook, a butler, or a maid,
I don't know if you got a yard, with a hammock in the shade.

I don't know if you got some shelter, say, a place to hide,
I don't know if you live with friends in whom you can confide,
I don't know if you got a family, say, a mum or dad,
I don't know if you feel love at all, at all, but I wish you...wish you had.

Come and go with me to my father's house,
Come and go with me to my father's house.

It's a big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big, big house; it's my father's house.

Oh, what's happening?
???

All I know is a big ole house, with rooms for everyone,
All I know is lots a land where we can play and run,
All I know is you need love, and I've got a family,
All I know is you're all alone; so why not come with me?

Come and go with me to my father's house,
Come and go with me to my father's house.

It's a big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big, big house; it's my father's house,
A big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big, big house; it's my father's house.

It's a big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big, big house; it's my father's house,
Big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big, big house; it's my father's house,
A big, big house, with lots and lots a room,
A big, big table, with lots and lots of food,
A big, big yard, where we can play football,
A big...

What's going on?
Wait a minute,
What's happening?
I'm back at Alcatraz,
I was in the big, big house, but now I'm in the big house,
Help me,
Oh, bread and water, Lordy, Lordy,
I'm in a big cell in the big house,
Oh no.

Oh what am I gonna do?
Woe is me,
I'm so depressed,
Oh no,
Oh.

Boo.
