come on up to the house

well the moon is broken

and the sky is cracked

come on up to the house

the only things you can see

is all that you lack

you gotta come on up to the house

all your crying don't do no good

come on up to the house

come down from 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 passing through

you gotta 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

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 find no port

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 passing through

you gotta come on up to the house

well

there's nothing in the world

that you can do

you gotta come on up to the house

and you've been whipped by the forces

that are inside you

you gotta come on up to the house

well

you're high on top

of the mountain of woe

come on up to the house

well

you know you should surrender

but you can't let go

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 passing through

you gotta come on up to the house
