A House Of Many Rooms |
| There may be some things about me |
| Things you don’t want to hear |
| For the rumors that precede me |
| May be very true I fear |
| They tell you I will deceive you |
| I don’t know how to care |
| Though my intentions might be good |
| There’s another darker look beware |
| When you walk through the door |
| Hang on to your senses |
| At best you must assume |
| It’s a house of many rooms |
| Some rooms are filled with pleasure |
| Laughter and love and light |
| All the things you never see |
| I keep under lock and key at night |
| When you walk through the door |
| Hang on to your senses |
| At best you must assume |
| It’s a house of many rooms |
| If you love me in the light |
| Love me in the shadow |
| I’m afraid you must assume |
| It’s a house of many rooms |
| Oh, a house of many rooms |
| It’s a house that’s so unstable |
| There are those who recommend |
| If they’d the strength and they were able |
| It ought to be condemned |
| I don’t agree but I will warn you |
| At best you must assume |
| I live in a house of many rooms |
| Here I’m in the library |
| Trying to understand |
| What empowers this behavior |
| Degenerates the man |
| The same apartment later |
| With the bottle half consumed |
| I see a house of many rooms |
| In the parlor I’m your father |
| Who could ask for more |
| The bedroom compromise me |
| With your best friend from next door |
| In the kitchen being honest |
| The lounge, a lying tongue |
| (I live in a house of many rooms) |
| Locked in the bathroom |
| Pretending to be young |
| Oh, the chapel finds me kneeling |
| Praying for my soul |
| The painting in the attic |
| Can’t prevent me growing old |
| Help me live forever, silent as a tomb |
| I live in a house of many rooms |
| Join me at the dining table |
| Join me at the feast |
| Join me in the stable |
| I’m laying with the beast |
| You’re walking in the garden |
| Oblivious who’d know? |
| (I live in a house of many rooms) |
| I’m in the cellar ready to explode |
| (I live in a house of many rooms) |
