Lyrics:
There are those, spend the night under bridges Over by the river, down in the park through the winter But there's a house that I know, safe and warm And no-one ever goes there down where the priests bless the wine She's been born into a wrong time she keeps nonsense on her mind She's a poet, she's a builder, she's as bored as bored can be She's a have-not, she's a know-all, she knows just how to say yes She's skating frozen chaos 'till the no-good gods are dead Sometimes in the dead of night Woken by the city lights She wonders how she keeps alive... This is the girl who lost the house Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home She's a clueless social climber likes the wrong side of the bed She's a pick-me-up and she's a drink-to-me in the company of friends She's tried every variation, she's so common, she's so cold She's homesick for a future can't stomach what she's told On every street in every town All her days are up and down At home among the lost-and-founds... This is the girl who lost the house Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home Here's the good Samaritan, looks away and carries on Looks away and carries on This is the girl who lost the house Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home This is the girl who lost the house Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home This is the girl who lost the house (There are those, spend the night under bridges) Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign (Over by the river, down in the park through the winter) And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home This is the girl who lost the house (But there's a house that I know, safe and warm) Which paid to the man who put up the rent sign (And no-one ever goes there down where the priests bless the wine) And threw out the girl to feather his own sweet home Thank you for every tree and flower, thank you for every sky of blue Thank you I should be every hour, truly thanking you _______ (I only know two tunes - "Silent Night" and "God Save The Queen" And I only know which is which 'cause one of them, everyone stands up for)
