lyrics

it’s a long time comin’
 when I get around to it,
i’m gonna sleep for days
“oh no, what’s this!?”  
haunted living quarters, and legs that stretch for days
your house was given
 a gifted deed so you moved in

but i built mine brick by brick, 
and designed every inch of it
 so when i decide to sit, catch my breath, get a grip 
i’m gonna do it in the bed I made

sir, i’m dizzy from all the spinning around
 i’m not kidding, the kid was really getting around 
so point me in the right direction and maybe i’ll see you around
cuz sir, i’m dizzy from all the spinning around

your house was given 
a gifted deed so you moved in

but i built mine brick by brick, 
designed every inch of it 
so when i decide to sit, rest my head, reflect a bit 
will you be along for the ride
i built mine brick by brick 
designed every inch of it 
so when i decide to sit,  catch my breath and get a grip
i’m gonna do it in the bed I made
 i’m gonna do it in the bed I made
 i’m gonna do it in the bed i made
