White Houses - Animals

A G D E x 2

A G D E

White houses in neat little rows contrasting against the sky

A G D E

Tumbled down black shacks over the tracks children so hungry they could cry

A G D E

The chrome the steel the metal dream leaving the teepee to rot

A G D E

The escapist young mind left behind saving dimes for community pot

A G D

You better get straight

E A G

Better, better get straight

D E A G

I mean you better get straight right now

D E A G D E

Better get it, you better, better get straight babe

A G D E

They're crying out for love all the time but they fail to see their

neighbours eyes

A G D E

The TV is on 6 o'clock news the channel's in full colored lies

A G D E

The company meets, the President speaks he's young but his bones creak

A G D E

Young girl dresses for the high school dance and the guy next door is dyin'

for a peek

D E A G

Oh did you get what I said, I said to you

D E A

That you, you better, you better get angry

G D E

You better, you better get straight

SOLO (32 bars)

A G D E

They put a bible in the drawer of the motel room and it's crying out to be read

A G D E

But it stays right there collecting dust, no one understands what's being said

A G D E

Lovers make love in comfy boxes, what will tomorrow bring

A G D

E

They've been told that it's wrong but they don't give a damn, soon another

life it will bring

D E A G

Oh and I think I better get myself to get it babe
