Safe As Houses

Safe as houses
Built on quicksand
Because I place my trust
In small town dreams
Its common on crooks
I know the strain of day to day
Busy, busy everybody
Ive seen the strangest times
Its far from noticed
Busy, busy everybody
I know the strain of day to day
I shook of my world
But stood back in amazement
I saw the greatest of worlds
To be the cheapest attraction
Safe as houses
Built on quicksand
Because I dont compete
For nobodys place
Making any difference
I know the strain of day to day
Busy, busy everybody
If you could join me now
I would not want for anything or anyone
I shook of my world
But stood back in amazement
I saw the greatest of worlds
To be the cheapest attraction
Safe as houses
Built on quicksand
Because I waste my time
In backstreet dealings
Killing often, everytime
I know the strain of day to day
Busy, busy everybody
Ive seen the cruelest times
Its far from noticed
Busy, busy everybody
