The Only House Thats Not On Fire Yet by Lemon Demon
The Only House Thats Not On Fire Yet
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
F Bb Gm Bb x2
[Verse 1]
F Bb
I feel knotted up today
Gm Bb
But in a most exquisite way
F Bb
Like neckties or like macrame
Gm Bb
Bowlines and Zeppelin bends
[Verse 2]
F Bb
If you were a theremin
Gm Bb
I wouldn't know where to begin
F Bb
My hands would stay here on my chin
Gm Bb
With a hum that never ends
[Pre-Chorus]
F Bb
This suit doesn't fit me
Gm Bb
I made it myself counterfeitly
F
With buttons of blue
Bb Gm
Killing me with déjà vu
[Chorus]
Bb Gm
It's a gift for you
Eb F
When I escape at last
Dm Gm Bb F
When enough time has passed
Gm Eb
But something keeps me as a pet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire yet
Dm Gm F
I made it when I was an architect
Dm Gm F
This is just a side effect
[Interlude]
F Bb Gm Bb x2
[Verse 3]
F Bb
I feel strangely regular
Gm Bb
But honestly, I prefer it to
F Bb
The usual bizarre
Gm Bb
Damn that oxymoron
[Verse 4]
F Bb
If you were a piece of dust
Gm Bb F
I'd shine a light through the busted window
Bb
And I'd learn to trust
Gm Bb
In the updraft that you're on
[Pre-Chorus]
F Bb
Click! Click! Auto-focus!
Gm Bb
The film's in the can like hocus-pocus
F
A picture of you
Bb Gm
Killing me with déjà vu
[Chorus]
Bb Gm Eb F
Don't know what I'll do when I escape at last
Dm Gm Bb F
When the end of time has passed
Gm Eb
But something keeps me as a pet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire yet
Dm Gm F
I made it when I was an architect
Dm Gm F
This is just a side effect
[Interlude]
F Bb Gm Bb x2
[Bridge]
F Bb
The punchline is: there is no punchline
Gm Bb
The punchline is: there is no punchline
F Bb
The punchline is: there is no punchline
Gm Bb
The punchline is that there is no punchline
F Bb
The punchline is that there is no punchline
Gm Bb
The punchline is that there is no punchline
F Bb
The punchline is: there is no punchline
Gm Bb
The punchline is that there is no punchline
[Instrumental]
F Bb Gm Bb x4
[Pre-Chorus]
F Bb Gm
Oh! I just thought of how to change all the hate
Bb F
Into love with the old switcheroo
Bb Gm
Dancing in my déjà vu
Bb Gm
You'll be dancing too
[Chorus]
Bb Eb F
When I escape at last
Dm Gm Bb F
When the future is the past
Gm Eb
But something keeps me as a pet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire yet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire yet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire yet
Dm Gm F
The only house that's not on fire (yet)

I feel knotted up today,
But in a most exquisite way
Like neckties or like macramé,
Bowlines and zeppelin bends.
If you were a theremin,
I wouldn't know where to begin;
My hands would stay here on my chin
With a hum that never ends.
This suit doesn't fit me,
I made it myself, counterfeitly,
With buttons of blue
Killing me with déjà vu.
It's a gift for you.
When I escape at last,
When enough time has passed.
But something keeps me as a pet:
The only house that's not on fire yet.
I made it when I was an architect.
This is just the side effect.
I feel strangely regular,
But honestly, I prefer it to
The usual bizarre.
Damn that oxymoron.
If you were a piece of dust,
I'd shine a light through the busted window
And I'd learn to trust
In the updraft that you're on.
Click! Click! Auto-focus!
The film's in the can like hocus-pocus.
A picture of you
Killing me with déjà vu.
Don't know what I'll do when I escape at last,
When the end of time has passed.
But something keeps me as a pet:
The only house that's not on fire yet.
I made it when I was an architect.
This is just the side effect.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
The punch line is that there is no punch line.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
The punch line is that there is no punch line.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
The punch line is: there is no punch line.
Oh! I just thought of how to change all the hate
Into love with the old switcheroo
Dancing in my déjà vu.
You'll be dancing, too.
When I escape at last,
When the future is the past.
But something keeps me as a pet:
The only house that's not on fire yet.
The only house that's not on fire yet.
The only house that's not on fire yet.
The only house that's not on fire (yet).
