[Verse 1] This house goes on sale every Wednesday morning And taken off the market in the afternoon You can buy a piece of it if you want to Its been good to me if its been good for you [Verse 2] Take the grand look now the fire is burning Is that your reflection on the wall? I can show you this room and some others If you came to see the house at all [Verse 3] Careful up the stairs, a few are missing Missing I havent had the time to make repairs First step is the hardest one to master The last one Im not really sure is there [Verse 4] This room here once had childish laughter And I come back to hear it now and again I cant say that Im certain what youre after But in this room, a part of you will remain Will remain [Verse 5] Second floor, the lady sleeps in waiting Past the lantern, tiptoe in its glance In the room the soft brown arms of shadow This room the hardest one to pass [Verse 6] How much will you pay to live in the attic? How much will you pay? The shavings off your mind are the only rent I left some would there if you thought you couldnt Or if the shouldnt that youve bought has been spent [Verse 7] This house goes on sale every Wednesday morning And taken off the market in the afternoon You can buy a piece of it if you want to Its been good for me if its been good for you
