We're gonna move the fourth floor
To where the second floor was
We're gonna put the front door
Out where the back porch door was
We're gonna rearrange each
Cubby hole and corridor 'cause
We're turnin' round the house
We're gonna raise the roof and
Undo the finished basement
Redo the staircase steps and
Reface each window casement
All beams above, below
Must undergo complete replacement
Turnin' round the house
Gonna turn the sitting room into a little standing room
And get a bit of elbow room by blowing up the powder room
The kitchen will be switchin' with the dining room
Aligning with the drawing room
By scaling down the music room and waiting room
But wait, more head room
Bigger bathroom, smaller bedroom
Put the ballroom in the hallway by the old conservatory
Relocated near the foyer of the retrofitted rec room
Make the attic more dramatic, hold it
That's another story
Redesign it, redefine it
Overhaul it, undermine it
Take it in, reorient it
Let it out, and reinvent it
Reconfigure, reproportion
Less finesse and more contortion
Turnin' round the house
