Planning Permission

Planning Permission - The Darkness

I'm gonna build you a house

I'm a man with two good hands

Two good hands that are part of me

And I'm on a mission

I've got a vision and planning permission

I've got twenty-thousand bricks to lay

Honey I don't have a place to stay

I've just got this camera stand

And a machine to mix the cement

You think I've lost the plot

I have not

I've sheltered you from the rain

You and I will defy the elements again

I need a home in which to revel

I need a place to keep my spirit level

And I know the right guys

'Cos I used to work in building supplies

Graft in a hundred of those

Concrete and steel by the wheelbarrow load

Finish at two whos gonna chop the barroos

I've got a trowel and I ain't afraid to use it

You think I've lost the plot

I have not

I've sheltered you from the rain

You and I will defy the elements again

Whooo
