The House Is All Lit Up

I prepared a tin hourglass
Simple instructions
For a man with lion's breath
My feelings are predetermined tonight

A man so often the best man
He fired a gun
That shot wedding rings on the fingers
Of his best friends
Of his family
And of his enemies

The house is all lit up
Is all lit up
Is all lit up
The house is all lit up
All lit up
All lit up tonight

Are you afraid
Of the unguided mind
Of free association?
Non sequiturs built this nation
Please understand
Or better yet please take my hand
And look at the shape I'm in
I've been drinking the gin
We found in Evan's mom's basement
My excuses
Are so useless
And then the choir sings

The house is all lit up
All lit up
All lit up
The house is all lit up
All lit up
All lit up tonight

And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on waiting for you
And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on speaking through you
And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on waiting for you
And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on, keep on

And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on speaking through you
And I am the filibuster it's true
I'm gonna keep on, keep on

The house is all lit up
All lit up
All lit up
The house is all lit up
All lit up
All lit up tonight
