Shatterproof

[Verse 1]
I see those newlyweds, their eyes wide and believing
They bill and coo at the mention of Chez Nous
Appearances can be deceiving

[Chorus 1][x2]
It's just a door and a window
Four walls and a roof
But a home of your own would be shatterproof

[Verse 2]
We papered over all the cracks and
Painted a cat's lick and a promise
The landlord was a man of few words
And most of them were ominous

[Chorus 1][x2]

[Verse 3]
It was nothing really to write home about
Then one day it all appears too much
Here comes my little hammer and its shatterproof touch
He said, be practical
These are most unreasonable demands
Forget about the broken spectacles
And the damage to your hand

[Chorus 2][x2]
It's just a door and a window
Four walls and a roof
And the doctors say I'm almost shatterproof

[Chorus 1][x2]
