Jandek It”S Your House Lyrics:
The next time you talk
Talk to me
Got eyes for you
Got ears for you
And I'm watching
And I'm listening
What do I see?
What do I hear?
The next time you walk
Walk my way
The next time you talk
Speak to me, take me
Another day on the road
Carrying my load
Heavy, now
So so much weight
Did I wait too long?
Keep me strong
Let me build my house
For you to come in
Take away this thing
Let me build my house
I'm ready for the house
I'm ready for the house
Do you hear?
Yeah, you hear
You're one big ear
You're one big eye
You see me, small as I am
You hear me, through all this noise
You know, I'm ready for the house
Let me build my house
I got a dream
Of granite rocks
And iron bars
Let me build my house
of rock and steel
Let me build my house
Let me build my house
I got this dream
Of iron and steel
Of rock and granite
Black flecks in the gray
stone it's granite
It's heavy rock
It's heavy rock
It's cast iron
Cast iron and heavy rock
Don't got no glass
Don't got no wood
Don't got no synthetic fiber
No foil products
Don't got no glass
Don't got no plastic
Don't got no wood
Don't got to brick
Don't got no shingles
Don't got no aluminum siding
I want my house
I want my granite iron house
Don't you know, I'm
ready for the house
I got this dream of my house
The one you gave me in my mind
I'm ready for the house
Let me build my house
I got this dream
Oh, you know that enough
to have my dream
My dream come true
You could do it
There is no doubt
There is no doubt
And another thing, I'm
ready for the house
I'm ready for the house
Just put me there
You'll see I'm ready for the house
You make me come
You make me go
Here and there and everywhere
And I don't complain
Even though it hurts
You know I tell you all about it but
I don't mind livin in my dream
I don't mind livin in my dream
But let me tell you, you
know, I know you know
I'm ready for the house
You gave me my dream
You know I'm workin'
I'm working, I'm trying
I'm not sloughin'
off, I'm givin' it
all I got
And you know, I'm
ready for the house
I'm ready for the house
I'm ready for the house
The house is mine
It's in my mind
They say mind over matter
Well let that be
Let it be my mind
That creates the matter
That builds my house

Out of granite
And cast iron
I love my house
Like I love my mind
I'll take it over
anybody else's house
I'll take it over
anybody else's mind
You couldn't sell my
anybody else's being
I'm not interested
You know I'm a loner
I don't like anything but my dreams
And doin' right by you
And you set my example
Let me build my house
Let me build my house
Let me build my house
Then step my foot inside my dream
Put my dream on this planet
Put my dream on this earth
Then see if I can have some fun
Let's give it a try
Let me build my house
Let me build my house
You know I'm ready for the house
Let me live my dream
I'll give up all my time
I'll give up my whole life
Forget all the money
Forget all the time
Forget my whole life
For right now, let me build my house
I want my house
I want a granite house
With steel bars on the
windows and doors
And a fence all around it
And maybe on the ceiling too
But ha ha ha ha
You can drive all those
other materials they
mess with when they make
houses
Like wood, plastic and brick and glass
Just give me granite and cast iron
I'll build a house
I'll build a house you
can be proud of
I'll live in it, I'll die in it
I'll worship in it
And I'll be good
'Cause I wanna be good
You can have all your bad
I've seen it, and I don't want it
I love good, I love righteous
And I need to be that way
And I know you want that
And I tell you, you got it from me
Let me build my house
Granite and iron
I'm ready for the house
Ain't no way I can lose
Gimme that house
Aw, just gimme that house
And you got it, as if you
didn't have it already
You got it, you got me,
you got my love
That won't ever change
No matter where you put me through
Ain't nobody else left around
You got me by myself
You want me by myself, you got me
I can't see anybody else
Unless I go where there's people
Which I do
Just to keep tryin'
to build my house
If I wasn't tryin' to
build my house I'd be
in the woods
Walkin' around
lookin' at trees or
sand or rock or what
or skies
Maybe I'd see an animal
Maybe I'd see a bird
I tell you what, thought
I wouldn't mind
Can you take me to that place you know
Back where'd I be
Well I tell you one thing
At this point I'm
ready for the house
I'm ready for the house
Sounds good enough to me
I'm ready for your house
For you house, it's not my house
It's your house
You done went and put it in my mind
I mean, where do my
thoughts and dreams come
from, huh?
I'm sure you contribute to it
You put it in my mind
My house, hey, I'm ready for it
And that ain't all
I'm ready to live in it
I'm ready to die in it
I'm ready to be there
Aha I'm ready for the house
Ready for the house
Granite, cast iron
It's my dream
I been ready a long time
I think now I'm really ready
I'm ready for the house
Hey, put me there
Hey, let me put myself there
Hey, huh huh huh huh
huh huh I'm ready for
the house
And if you don't put me
there, guess what?
I'll be there anyway, in my mind
Where's it at anyway?
It's in my mind, lest I
put it on the ground
Ain't no two ways about it
I'm ready for the house
