House of Ten Songtext
von The Pretty Things

He′s got one room
In a house of ten
Yes he's got, one room
In a house of ten

At nine he joins a faceless army
All earning the bread to live
Arriving on time every morning
He′s learnt that no one will give

He's got one room
In a house of ten
Yes he's got, one room
In a house of ten


The people that fill this house
He doesn′t know and seldom sees
He only knows they have problems
And maybe they′re just like him

Yes he's got one room
In a house of ten

And he knows even this room
Isn′t his own room
He's got one room
In a house of ten
In a house of ten

For half an hour on Monday
He owns the bathroom again
And he gets hungry
By the rota on the wall

Yes he′s got one room
In a house of ten
Yes he's got one room
In a house of ten
