The House That Dripped Blood Lyrics - The Mountain Goats
Look beyond the broken bottles
Past the rotting wooden stairs
Root out the wine-dark honeyed center
Not everyone can live like millionaires
Look through the air-thin walls
Tear up the floorboards, strip the paint
Go over every inch of space
With the patience of a saint
Grab your hat
Get your coat
The cellar door
Is an open throat
Look past the kitchen cabinets
Go through the chest of drawers
Scrutinize the casements
Rip the varnish off the doors
Dig up the laughing photographs
They're here somewhere or other
Take what you can carry
But let me tell you, brother
Still waters go stagnant
Bodies bloat
And the cellar door
Is an open throat
Past the rotting wooden stairs
Root out the wine-dark honeyed center
Not everyone can live like millionaires
Look through the air-thin walls
Tear up the floorboards, strip the paint
Go over every inch of space
With the patience of a saint
Grab your hat
Get your coat
The cellar door
Is an open throat
Look past the kitchen cabinets
Go through the chest of drawers
Scrutinize the casements
Rip the varnish off the doors
Dig up the laughing photographs
They're here somewhere or other
Take what you can carry
But let me tell you, brother
Still waters go stagnant
Bodies bloat
And the cellar door
Is an open throat
