Gustavo Santaolalla, Jarvis Cocker - This House Is... lyrics
[Gustavo Santaolalla, Jarvis Cocker - This House Is... lyrics]
I ripped out the kitchen
I repainted the hall
But nothing made any difference at all
This house This house is
I don't know what it is
I assembled some furniture
I resembled some furniture
But following instructions only
Leads to self-destruction this house is
I don't know what it is
Among of it, an early grave
A poor investment, such a big mistake
This house Oh, this house is
I don't know what it is
But, if you're in the market
For a three-story monstrosity
This could be your cup of tea
Your ideal property
This house Oh, this house is
I don't know what it is
Sunshine pours through a windowpane
Highlighting the fact that I'm
On my own again
A home is a place love and life can mix
A house is nothing, nothing
But a collection of bricks
This house is nothing but
A collection of bricks nothing, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
Tear this house down, build something else
Somewhere, someplace you could be yourself
Not this place you pour your life into
Just to watch it leak away, hey hey
What's the difference between a
House and a home?
A home is a place you never feel alone
But a house, oh, a house is
Just a collection of bricks
Sunshine still pours through my windowpane
Highlighting the fact I'm on my own again
A home is a place love and life can mix
A house is nothing, nothing
But a collection of bricks
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
One, two, three, four, five, six
Come look at my massive collection of bricks
Oh, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
I said, there's nothing, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh yeah, yeah
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
I repainted the hall
But nothing made any difference at all
This house This house is
I don't know what it is
I assembled some furniture
I resembled some furniture
But following instructions only
Leads to self-destruction this house is
I don't know what it is
Among of it, an early grave
A poor investment, such a big mistake
This house Oh, this house is
I don't know what it is
But, if you're in the market
For a three-story monstrosity
This could be your cup of tea
Your ideal property
This house Oh, this house is
I don't know what it is
Sunshine pours through a windowpane
Highlighting the fact that I'm
On my own again
A home is a place love and life can mix
A house is nothing, nothing
But a collection of bricks
This house is nothing but
A collection of bricks nothing, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
Tear this house down, build something else
Somewhere, someplace you could be yourself
Not this place you pour your life into
Just to watch it leak away, hey hey
What's the difference between a
House and a home?
A home is a place you never feel alone
But a house, oh, a house is
Just a collection of bricks
Sunshine still pours through my windowpane
Highlighting the fact I'm on my own again
A home is a place love and life can mix
A house is nothing, nothing
But a collection of bricks
Nothing but a big collection of bricks

Come look at my massive collection of bricks
Oh, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
I said, there's nothing, nothing
Nothing but a big collection of bricks, ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh yeah, yeah
Nothing but a big collection of bricks
