Big Sleeping House Songtext
von Microdisney

We went to a cheap hotel
An old soak no sleep hotel
It did for us and for public scorn
In the dying town where we were born
How I hoped she wouldn′t change her mind
Up until it was time to find
That she was even crazier than I

In the big sleeping house
Painted white and facing south
With the ghosts to grin at you
Good afternoon, now please get out


This is the night before
We've had a little and we want some more
It shakes the world and it makes us sweat
We make no promises, we make no threats
And I gave her what she did demand
It was weak and it was built on sand
And she clawed for it with both her hands

In the big sleeping house
Painted white and facing south
With the ghosts to grin at you
Good afternoon, now please get out

With the ghosts

I heard she went off to America
She has position and possessions now
And I would bet she can′t remember how

In the big sleeping house
Painted white and facing south
She held my hands to her face
And said, "Damn this place, it's a haunted place"
In the big sleeping house
Painted white and facing south
With the ghosts to grin at you
Good afternoon, now please get out
