Hop back in the car
100 miles ago we chose to leave for the sake of our sanity
We couldn't find a place to live
So we spent 12 days seven hours and 20 minutes
Living on the streets
Until we met up with a lawyer at the station
He told us he also had a house in the grasslands
He lent us a car to borrow
He said he'd meet us there the next morning
If we could make it on time

We spent the night driving until it felt like the city lights were gone
There was no one else around
But there stood a house in the distance

The roof was broke
The walls were rot
The doors were gone
And then we met up with the lawyer and said

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

He said "there's nowhere here left in the city to buy
So just take it
But I'd still have to charge you"

I told him that was insane
But he replied "It's either this or homeless"
I told him "This is practically homeless, there's barely a roof, there's barely a wall, there's barely any life around let alone any way to eat or sleep
In fact, we'll die out here
Cause if it's either this or homeless
Well, it's a close call"

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

Have you seen the insides?
Because they're just not right
I found a flood mark in the corner
Made by a hole found in the wall
Every floorboard is detached
And every window's broken into
There's an overview, but no way up
A ton of keys, but no door to lock
I don't see a bedroom, nor even a kitchen
So, I ask him for a better reason
But he can give me something worse, you say
"There's a killer in the streets, a killer in the streets"
If there's no one else around how's there a killer in the streets?

He says "There's tornadoes and hurricanes and this house ain't made of bricks but I've got nothing left to sell you so this might be your only pick"

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

Wait but
I'm begging your
Begging your pardon
I'm beggin' your
Beggin' your

What kind of house is this?
If I had had the pick, then it wouldn't have been this

That's when he drove away
That's when he drove away!
Come home, come back please
That's when he drove away
That's when he drove away
