people are so sad and I know why
with no chance to live before
you die
you get pretty sick if you hafta
keep it inside
i wanna build a house where an ad
don't scream
i wanna live in peace-quietly
i wanna have a place of love &
safety
people oughta live how & where
they want
people oughta have respect
in front
people oughta get along
pretty O.K.
so get off my dick
i'm building it brick by brick
brick by brick
i'm building a house where i can
think
and have some balance and
dignity
i'm building a house where no
one can hurt me
i'm building a house where the
weak are strong
i'm building a house with a real
song
i'm using faith that is immortal
i'm building it with simplicity
and the way that we feel, you
and me
i'm building it with what i
believe in
so get off my dick
'cause i'm building this brick by
brick
brick by brick
brick by brick
now i'm looking at just a little time
so be it-i want to
be true to my simple heart
and not put nothing else above it
brick by brick
brick by brick
brick by brick
brick by brick
brick by brick by brick
