Alice Walker - Home lyrics

[Chorus] Coal flicker candles swelling Thoughs come of fire burning Everything you made will end up broken And cheap thoughts and cheap addresses You're flapping then learn your lesson She only makes that moaning when shes Faking it And fake sounds and plastic feelings Freckles and skins all peeling Soon comes the night when I go home And then you're Offering the same old things it's Hair nets and safety pins And man does the same thing she always does It's your home brings Em up all things Like sitting up Singing hymns [Bridge 1] So I will lay the table but I will not sing I will not sing [Verse 1] And I go what would I do Now I've got no excuse And all this bullsh** has landed in my hands Like I don't want to talk it's not really complicated I just don't want to talk to you I just don't want to know The less I know The less I care it's just I might not say yes I mean I won't say no I never say no I mean I might say I might But we all know that really means no So I ask [Chorus] And it's Coals flicker candles swelling Thoughts come of fire burning Everything you made will end up broken And cheap thoughts and cheap addresses You're flapping then learn your lesson She only makes that moaning when shes Faking it And fake sounds and plastic feelings Freckles and skins all peeling Soon comes the night when I go home And then you're Offering the same old things it's Hair nets and safety pins And man does the same thing she always does It's your home brings Em up all things Like sitting up Singing hymns So I will lay the table but I will not sing I will not sing [Bridge 2] Please don't make me sing Please don't make me try [Verse 2] Cause I like this stuff I like the plane Especially with people paying But it's all too much I don't seem to care Must be something in this English air Must be something that I'm doing wrong Cause I'm always singing the same old song I'm always breaking the same old heart That I carry around in this soulless cart and [Chorus] Coals flicker candles swelling Thoughts come of fire burning Everything you made will end up broken And cheap thoughts and cheap addresses You're flapping then learn your lesson She only makes that moaning when shes Faking it And fake sounds and plastic feelings Freckles and skins all peeling Soon comes the night when I go home And then you're Offering the same old things it's Hair nets and safety pins And man does the same thing she always does It's your home brings Em up all things Like sitting up Singing hymns So I will lay the table but I will not sing I will not sing [Outro] And you're drunk drunk Drinking like a skunk drunk Drinking like a skunk drunk Drinking like a skunk drunk Drinking like a Home brings a lot more things Drunk drunk drinking like a skunk drunk Drinking like a skunk drunk Drinking like a Home brings a lot more things A lot more time to sit and drink A lot more time to play it dumb Sitting round Getting drunk
