Lyrics

You know who built this house
And you know who will tear it down
It broke the back of the trees in the forest
It brought the rats to their knees in the city

You thought you were safe
You thought you were strong
A kiss and a cough, now everyone's gone

The anchor's away
And the co-host's in crisis
The mice they will play
While the loin's in stasis
Everyone prays that the facts are to blame
When the tv goes off-
Their make up remains

Tenitus sets in
The night is so young
But we're waiting for him
The witness is singing
But we won't let her win

This suit fits much to tight
Still I'll wear it on my wedding night
I'm in over my head in a shallow waterbed
