CAKE - Palm of Your Hand lyrics

[CAKE - Palm of Your Hand lyrics]

When the house was standing you’d
Never have believed it
When the house was standing
You’d never have believed
The bricks and mortar have all given way
At first they resisted but then
They began to sway

How can you say forever is at your command?
How can you say the future’s in the palm
In the palm of your hand?

When the house was standing you’d
Never have believed it
When the house was standing
You’d never have believed
That gaping hole was once a foundation
Where you stand now were
Tools in the basement

Then, how can you say forever
Is at your command?
How can you say the future’s in the palm
In the palm of your hand?
