Country House letra

(So the story begins)
City dweller
Successful fella
Thought to himself
"Oops, I've got a lot of money
(Lot of money)
Caught in a rat race, terminally"

I'm a professional cynic
But my heart's not in it
I'm payin' the price of livin' life at the limit
(Lot of money)
Caught up in the century's anxiety
Yes, it preys on him
(Preys on him)
He's gettin' thin
Try the simple life

He lives in a house
A very big house
In the country
Watchin' afternoon repeats
And the food he eats
In the country
He takes all manner of pills
And piles up analyst bills
In the country
Oh, it's like an animal farm
That's the rural charm
In the country

He's got mornin' glory and life's a different story
Everything's going Jackanory
(Jackanory)
Touched with his own mortality
He's readin' Balzac, knockin' back Prozac
It's a helpin' hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland
(Close your eyes my)
Oh, it's a century's remedy
For the faint at heart
(Faint at heart)
A new start
Try the simple life

He lives in a house
(Blow)
A very big house
(Blow me out)
In the country
He's got a fog in his chest
(I am so sad)
So he needs a lot of rest
(I don't know why?)
In the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
(Blow)
Takes herbal baths
(Blow me out)
In the country
You should come to no harm
(I am so sad)
On the animal farm
(I don't know why?)
In the country
In the country
(Hey hey hey)
In the country
(Hey hey hey)
In the country, hey

(Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don't know why)
(Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don't know why)

He lives in a house
(Blow)
A very big house
(Blow me out)
In the country
He's got a fog in his chest
(I am so sad)
So he needs a lot of rest
(I don't know why?)
In the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
(Blow)
Takes herbal baths
(Blow me out)
In the country
You should come to no harm
(I am so sad)
On the animal farm
(I don't know why?)
In the country

He lives in a house
(Blow)
A very big house
(Blow me out)
In the country
He's got a fog in his chest
(I am so sad)
So he needs a lot of rest
(I don't know why?)
In the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
(Blow)
Takes herbal baths
(Blow me out)
In the country
You should come to no harm
(I am so sad)
On the animal farm
(I don't know why?)
In the country
Woo lalala
I wanna a beer
I wanna a beer
