Madness

Our House

Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around 

(Chorus:)
Our house, in the middle of our street 
Our house, in the middle of our...

Our house it has a crowd 
There's always something happening 
And it's usually quite loud 
Our mum, she's so house-proud 
Nothing ever slows her down 
And a mess is not allowed 

Chorus

(Something tells you that you've got to move away from it)

Father gets up late for work 
Mother has to iron his shirt 
Then she sends the kids to school 
Sees them off with a small kiss 
She's the one they're going to miss 
In lots of ways
 
Chorus

I remember way back then when everything was true and when 
We would have such a very good time
Such a fine time, such a happy time 
And I remember how we'd play, simply waste the day away 
Then we'd say nothing would come
Between us two dreamers 

Chorus 

Our house, was our castle and our keep 
Our house, in the middle of our street 
Our house, that was where we used to sleep 

Chorus (bis)
