My floor is made of wood but my roof is made of tin
You should hear the sound it makes when the rain clouds roll on in
A million teardrops drummin' on the roof of my chateau
I never had no neighbours no, at least none that I know
I was lonely when you got here
I'll be lonely when you go
So why should I let you in, my dear?
That's what I'd like to know
My garden is this forest, I am fenced in by the trees
Though you can hear the birds a singin', carried on the breeze
I had a million voices' chorus at the door of my chateau
I never had no neighbours no, at least none that I know
I was lonely when you got here
I'll be lonely when you go
So why should I let you in, my dear?
That's what I'd like to know
Yeah, that's what I'd like to know
Oh you look just like a wolf my dear though you're wearing clever clothes
What great shiny teeth you have, what a hairy nose
And a million things are telling me that I should not let you in
You got a nasty glint in your eyes, you got saliva on your chin
And I was lonely when you got here
I'll be lonely when you go
So why should I let you in, my dear?
That is what I'd like to know
Yeah, that's what I'd like to know
Tell me
I don't get many visitors (x4)
I was lonely when you got here
I'll be lonely when you go
So why should I let you in, my dear?
That's what I'd like to know (x3)
You say you must possess me, what my body and my soul
Consume me entirely as you want to take me home
And you want to come and live with me in the walls of my chateau
And I'll never need no neighbours no, at least none that I know
No I'll never need no neighbours no, at least none that I know
But I'll never need no neighbours no, at least none that I know
You should hear the sound it makes when the rain clouds roll on in
A million teardrops drummin' on the roof of my chateau
I never had no neighbours no, at least none that I know
I was lonely when you got here
I'll be lonely when you go
