|
I told you I'd leave some flares on
|
In case you ever wanted to find my home
|
You frowned and said, "Well the damn law should arrest ya"
|
Now this old house keeps falling apart
|
So I went down to the local Wal*Mart
|
And bought this Coleman lantern to impress you
|
|
Chorus 1:
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
I keep on a clapping but the don't clap on
|
House looks like where the Amish live
|
There's really no point to pay the power bill
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
The number's won't even light up on my telephone
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
|
It sure got awful damn depressing
|
The bulbs all blew out one by one
|
And I just can't afford right now to replace them
|
Until then I'll sit here in the dark
|
Cause I can't get this old generator to start
|
I've got four batteries
|
But I don't want to waste them
|
|
Chorus 2:
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
I'd love to sell the place
|
But it can't be shown
|
Looks just like where the Clampets lived
|
Before they packed up and moved to Beverly Hills
|
Every light in the house is blown
|
No more reading Country Weekly
|
While I'm on the throne
|
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
Can't see a damn thing until the crack of dawn
|
House looks like where Ben Franklin's born
|
The boy flew a kite in an electrical storm
|
Every light in the house is blown
|
I was hoping maybe the Trace bank would float me a loan
|
Cause every light in the house is blown
|
|
