House Of Cards

When you move your stuff away from me
When you caught the last train home
When you move your stuff to where you want to be
When you took that ride I'm torn and tremble way inside
Chorus 1. ~
House of cards house of sticks
Where you gonna put 'em all your Chinese tricks
Gonna lay foundation solid on the ground
House of bricks house of stone
Where you gonna get 'em when you're all alone
I'm a big bad wolf going to blow your big house down
When you took your stuff
And moved away
When you caught that train
I'm your conductor once again
Chorus 2. ~
House of cards house of sticks
Where you gonna put 'em all your left field tricks
Gonna lay foundation solid on the ground
House of bricks house of stone
Where you gonna get 'em when you're all alone
I'm a big bad wolf going to blow your big house down
I'll lay even money where you're gonna be
I'll lay even money down
I'll lay even money
What will I see
I'll lay even money down
Chorus 1.
Chorus 2.
