The Big House Lyrics

Two kids
In a bathtub
He's bearding her chin with bubbles
A perfect picture
How they link in hands
Tomorrow is cootie dance, cattail swords
You know we were probably all raised wrong
But we love each other regardless
And one has A.D.D. and the other one is dead
But both knowing when they'll go to hell
Two kids kill each other and kiss at the end
And we swear by the rust on our trampoline
that we saw the detachable wings at the crime scene
out in the cornfield
they threw themselves down
their scents are the same
they told no one, no one

\"oh, i promise it'll be lovely
we'll get the big house, buy you that duck you've always wanted
its just lately, daughter, i've been tired
and if you love me you'll pack up all your shit and get in\"
well everyone, everyone, they've gone down again, down again, down again
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

she says \"i love you i love you i love you i love you i love you i love you\"
he says \" i love you, too. oh, how i have loved you.\"
she says \" i need you i need you i need you i need you i need you\"
he says \" i need you, too. oh, darling how i have needed you\"
she said \"let's get married let's get married let's get married let's get married let's get married let's get married\"
he said \" i don't wanna marry you\"
she said \"i don't wanna marry you\"
she said \" i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you\"
he said \"i hate you, too. oh, i could never hate you\"
she said \" i'm kidding. i still love you.\"

granddad says \" don't much understand what the kids are saying these days, but it sounds really pretty, anyway. oh, let 'em stay, don't move away! oh,no.\"
though i promise, you're gonna fucking love it
the air is clean and the water is clear
oh my god, dear
how i've needed this
so make like your mother and run
gonna run gonna run

oh everyone everyone everyone they've gone
down again down again down again
(ah la dum oh oh hmmm hmm)
