Safe as Houses (2002 Remaster) - Stiff Little Fingers

Written by:Gordon Ogilvie/Jake Burns

She makes to home

 

And she stays mum

 

About the things

 

She might have done

 

She keeps her eyes firm on

The ground to set her own life

 

Makes up her face and not her mind to be a wife

 

There was a time

 

Away back then

 

She might have thought

To think again

 

But then through dolls and

Schoolyard games like ma before her

 

She learned girls play

The family way don't look for more

 

She's just playing

 

Playing safe

 

Playing houses

 

Safe

 

As houses

 

Here

On this street

 

When they were kids

 

He built his dreams

 

With coloured bricks

 

But comes the time for him to

Prove that he's a man now

 

He gets a wife free makes

His move

 

To three doors down

 

He's playing

 

Playing safe

 

Playing houses

 

Safe

 

As houses

 

For there was no one there to say

It didn't have

To be that way

You never get the best of you

When you do what they expect you to

 

You've it all

 

How you're no use

 

You're born to fail

 

So follow suit

 

But if you feel and got

A dream don't dare ignore it

 

'Cos that is what you've got to be

You must go for it

Don't play it

 

Play it safe

 

A plague

 

On houses

 

Safe

 

 

As houses
