Lyrics We'll Build a House - Martin Newell

We'll Build a House

Every picture tells a story
Follow while you can
There’s a cardboard box for everything
Bbut this one holds a man
I can’t believe the TV screen
I can’t think this is real
And I really cannot help the way I feel
And we’ll build a house
And a place
For the kids to grow in
We’ll build a house
Ask me when
Well I’m damned if I know
Lots of well-off older people, not so many young
Shall we help them climb the ladder?
Let’s remove the bottom rung
This happy generation
Makes a tear spring to the eye
Is it really any wonder they’re so high?
And we’ll build a house
And a place
For the kids to grow in
We’ll build a house
Ask me when
Well I’m damned if I know
And we’ll build a house
And a place
For the kids to grow in
We’ll build a house
Ask me when
Well I’m damned if I know
