House of the Glass Red

Drift up Jacob's creek without a paddle or a clue

Virtue wasn't true, start the cursed few

Hostess with the mostest waves you over with a wink

Will you swim or sink?

Now you're welcome in the house

Of the glass red where we repeat

All our past regrets in a dream

From which we never wake

Gather cells of gladdy horses gallop round the bar

Ghosts of parties past spewing works of art

Over chairs and tables and the vomit in the sink

What would mother think?

All this living in the house

Of the glass red where we repeat

All our past regrets in a dream

From which we never wake

Don't we know, don't we know

House of the glass red's the end?

Glasses having sword fights clink and clatter in the ears

Often turns to tears, seconds turn to years

Captain says you've made your bed, now lie forever more

There's no plank to walk

Live forever in the house

Of the glass red where we repeat

All our past regrets in a dream

From which we never wake

Don't we know, don't we know

House of the glass red's the end?

Don't we know

House of the glass red's the end?
