Country House

[Intro]
Welcome to my little love nest in the country
And so the story begins...

[Verse 1]
City dweller
Successful fella
Thought to 'imself whoops I've got a lot'a money!
Caught in a rat race termum- ter- terminally- ly

A professional cynic
But me 'eart's not in it
I'm payin' the price of livin' life at the limit
Caught up in the cen'ry's anxiety

It preys on 'im
He's gettin' thin

[Chorus]
Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
Watchin' af'ernoon repeats
And the food he eats in the coun'ry

Takes all manner o' pills
Piles analys' bills in the coun'ry
A bloody animal farm
Wi' lots o' rural charm in the coun'ry

[Verse 2]
He's got a mornin' glory
Life's a diff'rent story
Everyth'ns goin' jackanory (jackanory)
In touch with 'is own mortality (oo-ar)

He's readin' Balzac
Knockin' back Prozac
An 'elpin 'and feels wonderf'lly bland (wonderf'lly bland)
Ohh, it's the cent'ry's remedy

For the faint at 'eart
A brand new start

[Chorus]
Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
'E's got a fog on 'is chest
So 'e needs another rest in the coun'ry

'E' don't drink smoke laugh
Takes 'erbal baths in the coun'ry
And she'll come to no 'arm
On an animal farm in the coun'ry

In the coun'ry
In the coun'r- (coughing)

[Bridge]
Blow, blow me out-
[spoken:]
Whadd'ya mean I can't sing!?
Don' be so stupid, I'm doin' my best ain' I?
I'll show yer

Blow, blow me out-
[spoken:]
What a' tha' blow me out, works good enough fer' Wurzel's dun'it?

[Chorus/Outro]
Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
Watchin' af'ernoon repeats
And the food he eats in the coun'ry

Takes all manner o' pills
Piles analys' bills in the coun'ry
A bloody animal farm
Wi' lots o' rural charm in the coun'ry

Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
'E's got a fog on 'is chest
So 'e needs another rest in the coun'ry

'E' don't drink smoke laugh
Takes 'erbal baths in the coun'ry
And she'll come to no 'arm
On an animal farm in the coun'ry

C'mon, evr'ybody [?]

She, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
'E's got a fog on 'is chest
So 'e needs another rest in the coun'ry

Let 'im go!

'E' don't drink smoke laugh
Takes 'erbal baths in the coun'ry
And she'll come to no 'arm
On an animal farm in the coun'ry

Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
'E's got a fog on 'is chest
So 'e needs another rest in the coun'ry

'E' don't drink smoke laugh
Takes 'erbal baths in the coun'ry
And she'll come to no 'arm
On an animal farm in the coun'ry

Oh, 'e, lives in an 'ouse
It's a very big 'ouse in the coun'ry
'E's got a fog on 'is chest
So 'e needs another rest in the coun'ry
