My House Fell Down

John Dolan Russell: "I was almost embarrassed to bring this song up in it's original format. It was way outside the box for us. After Dave had finished recording "Go Home" I told him to stay in the room and 'give me a beat like this', he wasn't pleased afterward and came close to demanding we didn't use it. But it's perfect really. This is one of Marc's favorites and a great little surprise for us, making it's way into the live set right away."



Well my house fell down so I built me a new one
Made out of bricks not made out of sticks
Well my house fell down and the wolf couldn't help me
She got other plans she got other things
She got other things and she got other things
She got other things like the trees with their rings
My house fell down and I don't even care
Moving down the road stop point at me and stare...

Well my heart broke down so I stole me another
Made out of steel and kind of unreal
Well my heart broke down she kept the souvenir
She took it to eat she kept it with things
She kept it from me and she ate it with peas
She ate it with peas like a delicacy
Well my house fell down and I don't really care
Moving down the road stop point at me and stare

Well my house fell down and my piggies they helped me
Step by step baby brick by brick
Well my house fell down and she blew it away
Without a second thought for me she got other things
She got other houses she got other spouses
She got other things and she got all the things
Blowing down homes for trinkets and rings
I gave her my heart she ate it down like a meal
Said that it hurt
How you hurt when you don't feel?
