Lyrics

Well, the moon is broken and the sky is cracked Come on up to the house The only things that you can see is all that you lack Come on up to the house All your crying don't do no good Come on up to the house Come down off the cross, we can use the wood You gotta come on up to the house Come on up to the house Come on up to the house The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through You got to come on up to the house There's no light in the tunnel, no irons in the fire Come on up to the house And you're singing lead soprano in a junkman's choir You got to come on up to the house Does life seem nasty, brutish and short Come on up to the house The seas are stormy and you can't find no port Got to come on up to the house, yeah You gotta come on up to the house Come on up to the house The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through You got to come on up to the house, yeah You gotta come on up to the house Come on up to the house The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through You got to come on up to the house There's nothing in the world that you can do You gotta come on up to the house And you been whipped by the forces that are inside you Gotta come on up to the house Well, you're high on top of your mountain of woe Gotta come on up to the house Well, you know you should surrender, but you can't let it go You gotta come on up to the house, yeah Gotta come on up to the house Gotta come on up to the house The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through You gotta come on up to the house Gotta come on up to the house You gotta come on up to the house Yeah yeah yeah
