Picture if you will a house on the hill Where the family kills each other for a place in the will Understand that he came a dirty old man That holds a plastic rosary in the palm of his hand And under the rug you will sweep (under the rug you will sweep) Secrets and promises that you can't keep (promises that you can't keep) The dam it will leak, it will weep Said "I'd like to tell you how I feel", You said "You know that can't be real, it's much too deep" Why'd you wanna watch and wait, you can't walk on water Get your feet on the ground There's a hole in the floor, hole in the door Whole wide world waiting to turn you around And under the rug you will sweep (and under the rug you will sweep) Secrets and promises you can't keep (promises that you can't keep) The dam it will leak, it will weep Said "I'd like to tell you how I feel", You said "You know that can't be real, it's much too deep" Now how will you keep yourself busy? Take the trouble you're leaving behind And dig down deep where you do not belong there Shine a light where the sun doesn't shine Seven days, still no sign of daylight Your tunnel's collapsing from behind And how the hell did I get to Alaska Will it shine, the light where the sun doesn't shine?
