Bongo Joe - The House

M&T: Bongo Joe 2009

Eine Verbindung zwischen alt und neu. Einerseits die Kinderspiele andererseits das Erwachsensein alles vereint mit dem Motif eines Hauses, welches stets verändert (und verbessert) wird. Ergo, son bischen "ich bin alt und guck an die schöne Zeit zurück, aber jetzt kann ich mein Leben auch in die Hand nehmen und glücklich sein"

The House

I have built the useless pathway
just to fool the folks out there
Ever since I've run that business
people faced, truth or dare

I have built that big ol'porch there
just to watch those fools parade
Even as I embrace this life now,
and all of its changing charades

just take a step, at least for now
it won't hurt:
welcome to my house my darling
why don't you take a drink?
I won't teach you lessons baby
why don't you stop to think
welcome to my house my lover
please just stay a night
I will do whatever you favour
wanna kiss you, please sleep tight

I have fixed the lighting out there
I have come to like the light
can't you see me waiting for you
don't need to seek I'm not in hide

I have painted many walls here
don't you like all those greens?
Please remember our childhood stories
like when we played kings and queens
