Lyrics

Stranger in my own house

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I come stumbling in at a quarter to three

To the sound of my own dog growlin' at me

I'm scared to move or turn on a light

You've got me creepin' around in the dark

Like a thief in the night

I've got no excuse, I should have known

I've got no place to live

I never feel at home

I walk into the kitchen to see what's there

I'm tired and I'm hungry but the cupboard's bare

I've been working all day and all night too

I can't believe this is all I have to come back to

I guess I'll take a look upstairs, in the danger zone

I wonder what I'm doing here

When I never feel at home

I'm a stranger in my own house

I've got the keys to the door

But I'm still locked out

I'm a stranger in my own house

I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down

Can't be a stranger in my own house

I see the do not disturb sign on my bedroom door

What is this sheet and pillow laying on the floor

I wore out my welcome

I hear you loud and clear

It's time to get a few things straight around here

I've got no excuse, I should have known

I've got a place to live but I never feel at home

I'm just a stranger in my own house

I've got the keys to the door

But I'm still locked out

Stranger in my own house

I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow this house down

Can't be a stranger in my own house

I've got no excuse, I should have known

With a woman like you I'm better off alone

I'm a stranger in my own house

I've got the keys to the door

But I'm still locked out

I'm just a stranger in my own house

Oh, honey I'm home

I'm just a stranger in my own house

I'm just a stranger in my own house

You got a lion on your hands girl, not a mouse!

I'm just a stranger in my own house

I'm just a stranger in my own house

Well, somebody's got to go...
