ramshackle glory - love song for the birds in our backyard lyrics
just like that, it was winter again here in the desert
in june, our house was empty
in september, it’s filled with house guests
they’re too punker rock, too punk for words to come out
sit here in the living room of our beautiful broken down house
i’ve been working so much lately
when i’m home, i feel like a stranger in a foreign country
where can’t speak the language of unemployment
minor crimes and plans to get the h-ll out
and motherf-ck the police in my town
and our beautiful broken down house
we were in the kitchen, it was the week you first moved in
and i said “we’re glad to have you”
you shrugged [?] ditch
but thanks for dancing, thanks for singing and thanks for sticking around
and making a home with us here
in our beautiful broken down house
when my day’s up, i like to sit on the roof and watch the traffic
there’s my buddy mick from the laundromat
walking by looking pretty dope sick
h-ll, i remember that walk but i haven’t taken it for three years now
so mickey, come here and lie down
in our beautiful broken down house
the last couple of weeks i know you’ve been having trouble breathing
and maybe truthfully, trouble with most things
but don’t you worry if the pipes freeze and the power goes out
but if [?] cold in the dark
for a beautiful broken down house
just like that, it’s summer again here in tucson
in march, our house is a jungle
in july, it’s an abandoned parking lot
you move back to england, you move in seasons
you move where it’s hip right now
i say f-ck ’em all in my town
in our beautiful broken down house
