Big Blue House

(album: hey Zeus! - 1993)

The sun is down behind the Safeway
The snow is pink on a mountain
The black and white dog is under the table
Spaghetti is boiling on the burner

Would you please stop listening to your eyes cracking open
Would you please stop watching the sound of your heart in the mirror
In the big blue house, in the big blue house

I don't want to scatter your ashes
The floor is dirty enough as it is
And I don't want to speak of you kindly
Besides the phone is upstairs

Would you please stop wishing that you could stop wishing
That you could float out of your life like a cloud
In the big blue house, in the big blue house
In the big blue house

Calm down, calm way down
Everything's gonna be all right, everything' gonna be all right
In the big blue house

Would you please stop wishing that you could stop wishing
That you could float out of your life like a cloud
In the big blue house, in the big blue house
In the big blue house

Everything's gonna be all right, everything' gonna be all right
In the big blue house, in the big blue house
In the big blue house, in the big blue house
