briggs - housefyre lyrics
[intro: tim minchin]
da+dup, da+dup, oh
da+dup, da+dup, oh+oh
da+dup, da+dup, oh
da+dup, da+dup
[chorus 1: tim minchin]
come little baby, shelter from the storm
we’re goin’ viral and the fire is warm
keepin’ calm, carryin’ on, scotty’s latest presser is depressin’
so we’re tuning into this approved message from the senator
[verse 1: briggs]
bet you are still tryna find me
out of office message: mahalo from hawaii
leadership’s not somethin’ that i’m really feelin’, kid
you maybe should’ve voted for the other guy behind me
what’s the matter little aussie battler, ya tired?
no, everything i own is on fire (yeah, sick)
well, your aussie spirit’s still lifted and you still kickin’ on
everything is burning, better turn the f+ckin’ cricket on
we deserve someone who’s a little bit better than
and ain’t no one but [?] ([?])
you ain’t fit to push the whip you back+peddlin’
you ain’t fit to wear the kicks that i’m treadin’ in
[refrain 1: briggs]
(i’m smooth) i’m real nice like (hey)
and it’s not like i miss this nightlife
(it’s all good) yeah, it’s all right
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire (get it)
[chorus 2: tim minchin]
come little baby, shelter from the storm
we’re goin’ viral and the fire is warm
we’re good little citizens, sittin’ in the bunker
just watching the boss fumble like my befuddled uncle does
[post+chorus 1: tim minchin & briggs]
we’re rockin’ the lock+in, self+interred
watchin’ videos of jacinda ardern, sh+t
even the kiwis aren’t allowed outside
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire ([?])
[verse 2: briggs]
briggs for pm (okay), duck peter dutton if you see him (f+ck [?])
deport this: f+ck how you feelin’
pandemic’s got ’em reelin’, people need to see ya leadin’
eh, f+ck it, footy’s on, do it after the weekend
if worst comes to worst the people come first
yeah, but i’m gonna need a purse for the megachurch
you ain’t fit, we don’t get near a penny worth
you ain’t fit to lead a ship that’s [?]
went to hit the store and everything had been bought
they quarantined us all so we’re sittin’ indoors
if they gettin’ [?], i’m pullin’ this rip+chord
then ditchin’ this concord and splittin’ like jean claude
[refrain 2: briggs]
(jean claude) i’m real nice like (hey)
and it’s not like i miss this nightlife
(we’re all good) yeah, it’s all right
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire
(jean claude) yeah, you’re all right (hey)
but i’m kinda sick and tired of bein’ inside
(we’re all good) yeah, we’re all smiles
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire (get it)
[chorus 3: tim minchin & briggs]
come little baby, shelter from the storm
we’re coughin’ up lungs and the kettle’s on
we already burned the world outside
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire
[post+chorus 2: tim minchin & briggs]
da+dup, da+dup, oh (hey)
da+dup, da+dup, oh+oh
da+dup, da+dup, oh (hey)
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire
[verse 3: tim minchin & briggs]
scotty from marketing
standing there, shuffling his papers
wondering why jesus hasn’t come to save us
looking at peter dutton like, “what the f+ck’s happening?”
at least the ruby princess had a f+ckin’ captain
[chorus 4: tim minchin & briggs]
come little baby, shelter from the storm
stay the f+ck inside until the b+gg+r’s gone
but we can still stir sh+t from the inside
if you can’t start a house party, start a house fire
