This is the house that dwell built!
This is the urban couple dressed mostly in black
With a Small-Paul clad toddler, their son named Jack
That dreamed of a house that dwell Built
This is a sign reading “foreclosed”
Hanging from the reclaimed door, raw and exposed
That mortgaged the future of the couple in black
With a small-Paul clad toddler, their son named Jack
That dreamed of a house that dwell Built.
These are the invoices piled high
Because of one change from the feng shui guy
That resulted in the sign reading “foreclosed”
Hanging from the reclaimed door, raw and exposed
That mortgaged the future of the couple in black
With a Small-Paul clad toddler, their son named Jack
That dreamed of a house that dwell Built
This is the feng shui guy consulting his bagua
That foretold of a potty in an inauspicious area
That halted the project in one fell swoop
By the contractor fuming on the poured concrete stoop
That ruined the plans for a simple prefab
That changed the scope to an eco-Zen-friendly rehab
Of bamboo upholstery and denim insulation
Of solar panel window walls, and water moderation
That broke the budget, taking them back to phase one
With lots of ordering yet to be done
That caused the couple to argue and stress
Over making their collective carbon footprint less
While retaining a mid-century open floor plan
That emptied their pockets, one and two grand
Of custom authentic barn-style doors
Of non-guaranteed cork and teak floors
That generated the invoices piled high
Because of one change from the feng shui guy
That mortgaged the future of the couple in black
With a small-Paul clad toddler, their son named Jack
That dreamed of a house that dwell built.
