Spiral Staircase MAG
I want a house
With a record player in every single room
So that I can shoot songs from the hip
And sing through my paper-thin doom
I want a house
Whose doors are stoic and wide
Whose gilded, lockless handle
Smiles in warning of what goes on inside
I want a house
That waits by the water
By a river that would welcome my reflection
And drown all those silly souls that sought her
I want a house
With a heaven-high steeple
Because I’d climb a thousand steps
To get away from you people.

All the words on a stage and all the men and women merely players. <br /> They have their exits and their entrances; <br /> And one man in his time plays many parts.
