Every Light In The House Is Blown Lyrics

Every Light In The House Is Blown lyrics

I told you I'd leave some flares on
In case you ever wanted to find my
home
You frowned and said, "Well the damn law should arrest ya"
Now this
old house keeps falling apart
So I went down to the local Wal*Mart
And
bought this Coleman lantern to impress you

Chorus 1:
Cause every
light in the house is blown
I keep on a clapping but the don't clap
on
House looks like where the Amish live
There's really no point to pay
the power bill
Cause every light in the house is blown
The number's won't
even light up on my telephone
Cause every light in the house is
blown

It sure got awful damn depressing
The bulbs all blew out one by
one
And I just can't afford right now to replace them
Until then I'll sit
here in the dark
Cause I can't get this old generator to start
I've got
four batteries
But I don't want to waste them

Chorus 2:
Cause
every light in the house is blown
I'd love to sell the place
But it can't
be shown
Looks just like where the Clampets lived
Before they packed up
and moved to Beverly Hills
Every light in the house is blown
No more
reading Country Weekly
While I'm on the throne

Cause every light in
the house is blown
Can't see a damn thing until the crack of dawn
House
looks like where Ben Franklin's born
The boy flew a kite in an electrical
storm
Every light in the house is blown
I was hoping maybe the Trace bank
would float me a loan
Cause every light in the house is blown
