Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Make my house of bricks
And I'll stick here when the world
Comes crashing down around me
[Verse 2]
Make your arms a willow tree
And you can bend with me
Anywhere that I am going
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's hard to see
Anything lovely
All the people around me
Going for money and the money
And the egos
[Verse 4]
How can you ask me why
I need to know before I try
I've got to be sure there's more
Than money and the money
And the ego
[Verse 5]
Keep your eyes on me
And I'll look to you so I can see
What I am here for
[Verse 6]
Pull the wool over my eyes
Please kiss this day goodbye
Only you could get me going
[Verse 7]
Sometimes it's hard to see
Anything lovely
All the people around me
Going for money and the money
And the egos
[Verse 8]
How can you ask me why
I need to know before I try
I've got to be sure there's more
Than the money and the money
And the ego
[Verse 9]
When giving up is all you got
And giving up is all you want
You hear yourself say you lost the will
The power
[Verse 10]
When giving up is all you got
Giving up is all you want
Don't be afraid to sit down in your shower
Stay there for hours
[Verse 11]
Make my house of bricks
And I'll stick here when the world
Comes crashing down around me
[Verse 12]
Sometimes it's hard to see
Anything lovely
All the people around me
Going for money and the money
And the egos
[Verse 13]
How can you ask me why
I need to know before I try
I've got to be sure there's more
Than the money and the money
And the ego
[Verse 14]
Got to be sure there's more
Money and the money and the ego
Got to be sure there's more
Money and the money and the egos
