“All The Same Houses” -
back to music
I went down to the corner
To lay down some papers and get me a drink
I took a seat at the window
And watched the afternoon commute roll by
All the lipstick models and six figure business suits
Running with the clock, every which way
They’re all oblivious to conditions in the pouring rain
These days there’s no time
Take all you can and run the well dry
You’re only as good as you’re last pay check
You’re only as good as they say you are
They're all the same houses, turned around
Stacked one on top of another
Popping up like weeds in the back yard
Maximizing profit and saving strikes on the minute hand
It’s easy, it’s fast and it’s been proven to last
(Chorus)
It’s just a little bit more of the same
And I’m bored; I’m tired of it
(Chorus)
