This is house of misery
This is house of pain
This is the house where I have stayed
Never to leave here again

This is the house where I can see
The people I love the most
Sitting in my old armchair
Surrounded by their ghosts

This is where my husband lies
Buried beneath the flowers
There he lies in pieces
Since his accident whith the lawnmower
Now the grass is four feet high
I wish he was here once again
But this is the house of misery
This is the house of pain

This is a house of memories
This is a house of shadows
This is where my life went off
The road so straight and narrow

This is where my life
First lost its vital spark
And now I sit here all alone
Silent in the dark
My sister came to visit me
One bright sunday in june
We sat here in the garden
On that sunny aftermoon

She wanted to live forever
I guess she would have done too
But for that escaped tiger
From our local zoo

This is the house last place
Where I cried out to my daughter
As she was dragged off screaming
Into a flying saucer

I wonder if she's still alive
I sometimes see her face
I wonder what she's doing now
Deep in outer space

This was a house of laughter
This was a place of fun
A house so full of people
Now I'm the only one

I sometimes hear them laughing
I sometimes hear them cry
Why did they have to leave this place?
Why did they have to die?

This is where my only son
Was building garden shed
When a meteorite fell from the sky
And took off half his head
The shed stands half completed
A monument to his name
The lawnmower inside it
Stands rusting in the rain

This is the house where I must stay
Never to leave here again
This is the house of misery
This is the house of pain
