Conor Oberst - Mamah Borthwick (A Sketch) lyrics

Just because you got it You don't have to flaunt it With and endless stream of famous men Pretty as a portrait Look like Mamah Borthwick On that shinning brow of Taliesin Someone might try and burn it down So you'll have to put the fire out Fortune's spent but that's irrelevant To build something that's sacred till the end It costs twenty dollars to visit Falling Water It's a perfect house where no one lives Maybe someone once did But they got evicted By a bus load full of greedy tourists And it would take a time machine To fulfill all of my fantasies cuz A hidden dream can be embarra**ing And only thing that's sacred till the end Every time I tempt fate There's a major earthquake Heard the people scream as the ceiling fell Every building damaged Only one left standing
