Black Houses - Modern English

Sunday morning, the sun is shining, peacefully

Ball games in the park, joyfully

The car’s being cleaned again, the grass is mowed

A sudden feeling, the wind is building, the clouds are forming

I tried to move

I tried to think

I tried to live

The format’s changing, the colours different, breathing in

Concentrated, ?, touch my skin

Turned the tap off, stumbled backwards, my mind exploded

A distant rumbling, my body’s aching, my eyes are burning

I tried to move

I tried to think

I tried to live

White houses last longer

They go in the end

Go to the baby in a black house

Read all about it, read all about it, read all about it, read all about it

Move to the coast

Keep to your community, keep to your community

Keep to your community, keep to your community

You can’t take it with you

Religion can’t help, religion can’t help, religion can’t help, religion

Can’t help

Sunday morning, the sun is shining, peacefully

Ball games in the park, joyfully

The car’s being cleaned again, the grass is mowed

A sudden feeling, the wind is building, the clouds are forming

I tried to move

I tried to think

I tried to live
