lyrics

Music from the lonely house
like a scar across the night
there’s music in the lonely house alright
among the broken glass and spite
so though the rivers and the poplars weep
and the cockroach, bug and fungus creep
it’ll drown the sound of muddled prayers
tonight there’ll be no sleep
I guess.

Music coming from the lonely house
through open windows and open doors
and we’re welcome in the lonely house tonight
as long as we don’t pause
so every lawman, joker, hack and fool
let’s move on in and pull up a stool
and tap our feet until the darkness goes
whether someone wound that desperate spool
no-one knows.

There’s a fellow with a twisted hand
unfolds into a claw of gold
there’s a fellow with a crooked hand I know
and with him comes the cold
but there is music from the lonely house
and we’re dancing, every rat and louse,
so that wicked hand it can’t come close
we’ll be dancing till all hell is froze
I suppose...
