The Once - What Will You Be Building lyrics
[The Once - What Will You Be Building lyrics]
What will you be building when you have to go
That is the only thing that I need to know
What slip of the hard hand
Will close the big show
And what will you be building
When you have to go
And there's very few reasons
Poor people have found
To grow any older is to run with the hounds
And hounds and poor people
Make money go round
And money makes favours and fevers and clowns
I'll write my name on a big piece of paper
I'll write down my secrets
I'll get me an acre
I'll build me a fortune and pay for a saviour
And I'll empty my pockets at
Last for my maker
What will you be building when you have to go
That is the only thing that I need to know
What slip of the hard hand
Will close the big show
What will you be building when you have to go
And what will you be building
When you have to go
That is the only thing that I need to know
What slip of the hard hand
Will close the big show
And what will you be building
When you have to go
And there's very few reasons
Poor people have found
To grow any older is to run with the hounds
And hounds and poor people
Make money go round
And money makes favours and fevers and clowns
I'll write my name on a big piece of paper
I'll write down my secrets
I'll get me an acre
I'll build me a fortune and pay for a saviour
And I'll empty my pockets at
Last for my maker
What will you be building when you have to go
That is the only thing that I need to know
What slip of the hard hand
Will close the big show
What will you be building when you have to go
And what will you be building
When you have to go
