These Are My Things Songtext
von Pattern‐Seeking Animals

Welcome, you′ll notice the moment you walk through my door (oh-yeah, oh-yeah, oh-yeah)
Stacked to the ceiling in boxes and bags on the floor
45's, geisha knives, Look, Life and Time magazines (oh-yeah, oh-yeah, oh-yeah)
Coke bottles, model trains, porcelain pig figurines

I′ve found the rarest ones made
Worth every penny that I gladly paid
So very impressive I'm sure you'd agree
I can′t explain the joy they bring

Look all around now, and what do you see?
A gradually growing museum of me
Built with these hands, my castle of dreams
And I′m the king
These are my things (these are my things)
(These are my things)

Here in the living room, right where the couch used to be (oh-yeah, oh-yeah, oh-yeah)
Lost in Space lunch boxes lined up in rows perfectly
Kay guitars, lobby cards, snow globes and toys on display (oh-yeah, oh-yeah, oh-yeah)
Beta tapes, license plates, Crayon-Shin-Chan anime


Have you seen this episode here?
It's considered the best of the genre that year
Yes, it′s a language I don't really speak
Still genius work, considering

Look all around now, and what do you see?
A gradually growing museum of me
Built with these hands, my castle of dreams
And I′m the king
These are my things (these are my things, these are my things)
These are my things (these are my things, these are my things)
These are my things (things)

Things, things
Things
Things, things, things, things, things
Things, things
Things, things
Things, things, things, things, things

Yes, I have found the rarest ones made
Worth every penny that I gladly paid
So very impressive I'm sure you′d agree
I can't explain the joy they bring


Look all around now, and what do you see?
A gradually growing museum of me
Built with these hands, my castle of dreams
And I'm the king
These are my things

Look all around now, and what do you see?
A gradually growing museum of me
Built with these hands, my castle of dreams
And I′m the king

I′m the king
