Houses of the Lonely

Someone save me from staying home

Take me down to a bus stop

Or to an ambient coffee shop

Buy me a drink at a sleazy bar

Drive me around in a fancy car

Just make sure I’m never alone

Someone stop the homebound blues

Drag me to a fine art show

Take me where I never go

Bring me to where they’re all aloof

Or atop a skyscraper’s roof

You wouldn’t like it here in my shoes
