Lyrics
A great big house with nothing in it
He comes home, says, "Now wait a minute"
He's comin' in, she's goin' out
He turns around, says, "What's that about?"
Do what they like, the kid's in school
Think she don't know, now, who's kidding who?
He turns around, says, "Who wants to know?"
Open the door and there's nobody home!
Go ahead, fill their heads
Go ahead, fill their heads with poison
Take a look, these people are savages!
Take a look at their misfortune
I'm goin' up, I got a message
I'm gonna, I'm gonna wait 'til I close the door
I'm gonna wrap myself in blankets
I'm gonna roll out across the floor
Well, the bride, bride and the groom
Run in a circle around their house
They're goin' out, they're comin' in
Inside a circle around their house
These shoes don't fit, this tie don't match
I'm gonna throw it away when I get home
I turned around, I'm doin' my best
I'm gonna, I'm gonna wait 'til the light comes on
Yes, he's the king and she's the queen
Run in a circle around their house
Open the door and let them in
Inside a circle around their house
