I once built a house, a big house of cards.
I thought it was just perfect, a perfect place to have.
I built it in the garden, and then there came a breeze.
It was so smooth and light, my house didn't have the strength to fight.
I hence built a house, a house of cards again.
I thought it was just perfect, a perfect place to have.
I built it in my room; closed doors and no threat.
The fan whispered to me, it's the air you had to fret.
And then I built a house, a big house of ice.
I thought it was just perfect, a perfect place to have.
Little did I remember, that water never stays...
It changed its form and took its course, and went its own sweet way
I gathered courage and built a house, a big house of sand.
I thought it was just perfect, a perfect place to have.
'Twas safe from the sea, until the evening tide;
which swept it away in one swift motion, before I could say goodbye.
At last, I built a house, a big Lego house.
I thought it was just perfect, a perfect place to have.
Moms cheered, it's play day, kids flocked from round the town.
But they wanted a car a tree a building,
.
.
.
and hence they knocked it down.
