Houseplants

Kids are getting smarter but the rent ain't getting cheaper

Zeitgeist operation and the skin is getting pinker

Houseplants in my future, houseplants to disguise

There's a rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes

Rotten sense of cesspit, fear in your eyes

Houseplants, houseplants

We speak about our days, yeah, we speak about a raise

Everybody's bored, we're just too afraid to say

Houseplants in my future, houseplants to disguise

There's a rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes

Rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes

Rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes, ooo

Houseplants, houseplants

Houseplants, houseplants

Houseplants, houseplants

Kids are getting smarter but the rent ain't getting cheaper

Zeitgeist operation and the skin is getting pinker

Houseplants, houseplants

We speak about our days, yeah, we speak about a raise

Everybody's bored, we're just too afraid to say

Houseplants, houseplants

We squeeze it at night, oh, we squeeze it so tight

We squeeze it at night and it's getting so tight

Houseplants, houseplants

Gardens ain't a saviour, decoration ain't behaviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, decoration ain't behaviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, decoration ain't behaviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, gardens ain't a saviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, oh, gardens ain't a saviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, gardens ain't a saviour

Gardens ain't a saviour, gardens ain't a saviour

Houseplants, houseplants

I find myself looking for a future that doesn't exist

This is my beautiful house and I can't afford to live in it

Money through the back tunnel

1970s war picture living

Children's television

We’re still Making Plans for Nigel

Middle England

General conversation in a sympathetic tone

Trips to B&Q with your other half

This is how the other half live

Green fingers, my friends are [?]

Career driven

Guided by oxygen

Or maybe I'm just lazy
