House For Everyone

(Dave Mason)

Verse 1:

My bed is made of candy floss

The house is made of cheese

It's lit by lots of glowworms

If I'm wrong correct me please

Verse 2:

The village is a pop-up book

The people wooden dolls

The roads are made from treacle

Think it's time that I moved on

My boat is half a walnut shell

The journey will be long

So I filled the hold with peppermints

And creamy pink blancmange

I sailed away for fifteen days

It never once got dark

And came upon two large houses

Set out in a park

Verse 3:

On the door of one was truth

On the other door was lies

Which one should I enter through

I really must decide

The door marked lies had lots of flowers growing 'round outside

But looking closer, noticed it was crumbling inside

Verse 4:

The door marked truth was very plain

But stood up very strong

And when I entered thru its door

I knew I wasn't wrong
