Country House (Live in Hyde Park)

[Verse 1]
City dweller, successful fella
He thought to himself, "Oops, I've got a lot of money" (A lot of money)
Caught in a rat race, terminally
I'm a professional cynic but my heart's not in it
I'm paying the price of living life at the limit (To the limit)
Caught in the century's anxiety

[Pre-Chorus]
Yes, it preys on him (Preys on him)
He's getting thin (He's getting thin)

[Chorus]
Now he lives in a house
Very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats (Ooh, la-la)
And the food he eats in the country (Ooh)
He takes all manner of pills
And piles up analyst bills in the country
It's like an animal farm (Ooh, la-la)
There's lots of rural charm in the country (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
He got morning glory, life's a different story
Everything's going Jackanory (Jackanory)
Touched with his own mortality
And now he's reading Balzac and knocking back Prozac
A helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland
(Close your eyes, try it)
Oh, it's a century's remedy

[Pre-Chorus]
For the faint at heart (Faint at heart)
A new start (A new start)

[Chorus]
Now he lives in a house
Very big house in the country
He's got a fog in his chest (Ooh, la-la)
So he needs a lot of rest in the country (Ooh)
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
Takes herbal baths in the country
It's like an animal farm (Ooh, la-la)
There's lots of rural charm in the country (Ooh)

[Interlude]
In the country (He-he-he)
In the country (He-he-he)
In the country

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Blow, blow me out
I am so sad, I don't know why
Blow, blow me out
I am so sad, I don't know why

[Chorus]
Oh, he lives in a house
Very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats (Ooh, la-la)
And the food he eats in the country (Ooh)
He takes all manner of pills
And piles up analyst bills in the country
It's like an animal farm (Ooh, la-la)
There's lots of rural charm in the country (Ooh)
Oh, he lives in a house
Very big house in the country
He's got a fog in his chest
So he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
Takes herbal baths in the country
It's like an animal farm
There's lots of rural charm in the country

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, oh

[Spoken]
Thank you
