John Coffey – No House For Thee lyrics
[Verse:]
I dip my toes into the sea
The tidings are high and the drinks are on me
But on the Horizon I see the floating end of my party!
Stay far away, for here's no house for thee
Me and my friends hung around
And found it was you that was talk of the town
And your pale black face had shown hell in my heart
I needed deep shiny blue
To keep me into my mood;
But a nightmare started kicking in
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
And you were found in the flood tonight
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Verse:]
I’ve committed a crime to this brother of mine
Although he came for afar
He dreaded the roar of water at the bottom of the gulf
And it comes around and around
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
You were found in the flood tonight
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
Yeah you were bound by the flood
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
Fed to the ocean!
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
Yeah, you were bound by the flood
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Stay Far Away, for here is no house for thee]
I dip my toes into the sea
The tidings are high and the drinks are on me
But on the Horizon I see the floating end of my party!
Stay far away, for here's no house for thee
Me and my friends hung around
And found it was you that was talk of the town
And your pale black face had shown hell in my heart
I needed deep shiny blue
To keep me into my mood;
But a nightmare started kicking in
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
And you were found in the flood tonight
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Verse:]
I’ve committed a crime to this brother of mine
Although he came for afar
He dreaded the roar of water at the bottom of the gulf
And it comes around and around
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
You were found in the flood tonight
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
Yeah you were bound by the flood
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Chorus:]
'They drowned, they drowned, they drowned, they drowned..'
Fed to the ocean!
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
Yeah, you were bound by the flood
The minute you run to change
We will hunt you down!
[Stay Far Away, for here is no house for thee]
