Lyrics
Big House
by Charlie Lang
Could have been an actor
With the lights shining down on me
Could have been a writer
Then everyone would understand me
Chorus
Instead I?m in the big house
A self-enclosed circus ride
I am the ringmaster
Feelings are magnified
Where are my children?
Where are they now?
And there is no lawyer here
Tough enough to get me out
I think of ways of killing time
I make up things in my mind
They say if I don?t stop imagining things
They?ll never let me out
And I?ll be in the big house
A self-enclosed circus ride
I am the ringmaster
Feelings are magnified
Big house, big house
I felt the needle, but I missed feeling the sun
Big house
Instrumental Bridge
Could have been an actor
With the lights shining down on me
Could have been a writer
Then everyone would understand me
(Announcements & Out?)
