Verse 1

Make my house of bricks

And I'll stick

here when the world

Comes crashing down around me

Make your arms a willow tree

And you can bend with me

Anywhere that I'm going

Chorus 1

Sometimes it's hard to see

Anything lovely

All the people around me

Going for the money

and the money

And the ego

How can you ask me why

I need to know before I try?

I've got to be sure there's more

Than the money and the money

And the ego

Verse 2

Keep your eyes on me

And I'll look to

you so I can see

What I am here for

Pull the wool over my eyes

Please kiss this day goodbye

Only you can get me going

Chorus 2

Sometimes it's hard to see

Anything lovely

All the people around me

Going for the money

And the ego

How can you ask me why

I need to know before I try?

Than the money and the money

And the ego

Bridge

When giving up is all you got

And giving up is all you want

You hear yourself say

you lost the will The power

When giving up is all you got

And giving up is all you want

Don't be afraid to sit down

In your shower

You can stay in there for hours

Make my house of bricks

Comes crashing down around me
