Green Houses
Rusty soapbox
The big man looks at me
Thought he looked kinda funny
As he spoke economy
Black suit tie
And his shoes shined
When you grow old you'll believe
The sparkle screamed
He said
Living or dying
We're only surviving
So why not esteem
The empty luxuries
Green houses
Broken people
The famous martyred like the saints
Grey daydreams
Lots of money
Live to take it to the bank
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
It must be lonely
Like a sail across the sea
To be living in greed
Not a life of love and peace
They teach
Living or dying
We're only surviving
So why not esteem
The empty luxuries
Green houses
Broken people
The famous martyred like the saints
Grey daydreams
Lots of money
Live to take it to the bank
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
There's poison in the water
And the blood is dripping down
It's what this life's about
Pass the bill and bargain out
Green houses
Broken memory
Of how we all should live and breathe
New daylight
Live for sunrise
A world of love for you and me
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
The big man looks at me
Thought he looked kinda funny
As he spoke economy
Black suit tie
And his shoes shined
When you grow old you'll believe
The sparkle screamed
He said
Living or dying
We're only surviving
So why not esteem
The empty luxuries
Green houses
Broken people
The famous martyred like the saints
Grey daydreams
Lots of money
Live to take it to the bank
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
It must be lonely
Like a sail across the sea
To be living in greed
Not a life of love and peace
They teach
Living or dying
We're only surviving
So why not esteem
The empty luxuries
Green houses
Broken people
The famous martyred like the saints
Grey daydreams
Lots of money
Live to take it to the bank
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
There's poison in the water
And the blood is dripping down
It's what this life's about
Pass the bill and bargain out
Green houses
Broken memory
Of how we all should live and breathe
New daylight
Live for sunrise
A world of love for you and me
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
