The song describes a sexually charged conversation between a dominant and a submissive, the lyrics hint towards a BDSM nature, including a ‘trophy room’ and ‘special features’.
On the official band website Brad talks about ‘You See That House?’ and reveals:
“there are the creepy tunes: You See Tha...
You see that house
That's over there
That's quite a house
That's standing there
I have the keys
Would you like to see inside
Oh yes, I would
I've heard it's very nice
I've heard about
The lovely bathroom tiles
So nice and cool
To lay upon and rest your cheek
That's very good
You are correct
Perhaps you know
Or just suspect
That there may be
Other special features as well
Oh, Mr. Man
Now don't you tease me
You know to well
How you could please me
And could we go
To the famous trophy room
Well I see you know
More than I thought you did
I think I have a room
Where you gonna' like it
So take my hand
Come down to the cellar with me
