Oh he lives in a house
Oh, it's like an animal farm
And piles up analyst bills in the country
Everything's going jackanory
You should come to no harm
That's the rural charm in the country
Watchin' afternoon repeats
So he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
Oh he lives in a house
Takes herbal baths in the country
A very big house in the country
Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don't know why?
A very big house in the country
A very big house in the country
Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don't know why?
It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully blind
For the faint at heart
He's gettin' thin, try the simple life
He's got morning glory and life's a different story
A very big house in the country
Caught up in the century's anxiety
Watchin' afternoon repeats
I'm payin' the price of livin' life at the limit
On the animal farm in the country
And piles up analyst bills in the country
Caught in a rat race terminally
A new start, try the simple life
Touched with his own mortality
He lives in a house
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh
Yes, it preys on him
He's got a fog in his chest
So he needs a lot of rest in the country
He lives in a house
That's the rural charm in the country
Oh, it's like an animal farm
Oh, it's a century's remedy
In the country, in the country, in the country
And the food he eats in the country
And the food he eats in the country
You should come to no harm
He takes all manner of pills
Takes herbal baths in the country
I'm a professional cynic but my heart's not in it
He's reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac
He takes all manner of pills
He's got a fog in his chest
