Shatterproof
I see those newly weds Their eyes wide and believing They bill and coo at the mention of chez nous Appearances can be deceiving
It's just a door and a window Four walls and a roof But a home of your own would be shatterproof A door and a window Four walls and a roof But a home of your own would be shatterproof
We papered over all the cracks And painted a cat's lick and a promise The landlord was a man of few words And most of them were ominous
It's just a door and a window Four walls and a roof Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But a home of your own would be shatterproof A door and a window Four walls and a roof But a home of your own would be shatterproof
It was nothing really to write home about Then one day it all appears too much Here comes my little hammer and its shatterproof touch
He said, 'be practical, These are most unreasonable demands. Forget about the broken spectacles And the damage to your hand.'
It's just a door and a window Four walls and a roof And the doctors say i'm almost shatterproof
