House of Wax Songtext
von Paul McCartney

Lightning hits the house of wax
Poets spill out on the street
To set alight the incomplete
Remainders of the future

Hidden in the yard
Hidden in the yard


Thunder drowns the trumpets blast
Poets scatter through the night
But they can only dream of flight
Away from their confusion

Hidden in the yard underneath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all

Lightning hits the house of wax
Women scream and run around
To dance upon the battleground
Like wild demented horses

Hidden in the yard, underneath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all


Hidden in the yard, underneath the wall
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all
