Alan Price - The House That Jack Built lyrics

Brother Nigel paints the stairs with the signs of the Zodiac Throws milk in the mirror as he stands in his plastic bag My sister Emma rises ever round and round the garden Spends the whole day saying: "I beg your pardon" Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my It makes you wanna cry This is the house that Jack built, baby And it reaches up into the sky Uncle Joe cracks walnuts in between his toes for fun And looks through coloured gla** at the dark spots on the sun And Mary, she believes that her mother was a queen Keep saying you just missed him, King Solomon has just been Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my It makes you wanna cry This is the house that Jack built, baby And it reaches up into the sky {Bridge} Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my It makes you wanna cry This is the house that Jack built, baby And it reaches up into the sky Cousin Festus writes a letter each and every single day He believes that writing letters keeps the Asian flu away I got a reservation, now it's given it for free Cause I k**ed all the flies in the State of Tennessee Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my It makes you wanna cry This is the house that Jack built, baby And it reaches up into the sky I'm coming I'm coming Please save a place for me Oho, I'm coming, babe Oho, I'm coming, babe Oho, I'm coming, baby {Outro}
