This House

We're standing on the shoulders of the chosen
We built this castle strong
We're on the brink of total empire
And then you came along

But there's something you need to know

I built this house
I built this home
There ain't nothing in this world
There ain't nothing here for you

We were starting to think you were not coming
Where you been
Hope was fading you had not arrived
But finally it's time to set examples
Bring your best your brightest to my eyes

I built this house
I built this home
There ain't nothing in this world
There ain't nothing here for you

All the work all the pride all the time spent
Hurrying hurrying hurrying hurrying hurrying
For nothing nobody nowhere
Where is the fountain the fountain the fountain
I'm bout to shut this whole thing down
I'm tired of running round and round

Round and round and round
