Apartment Song

Illuminate the obvious It's standing right here in front of us What our apartment does When we're not around Does not concern us Simulate the obvious Standing, standing right here in front of us Just what our apartment does When we're not around Does not concern us She's the horrible esthete And she hates her ugly feet At a place where her friends all meet She takes her shoes off and Invites everyone to see Eliminate the obvious And it's standing right here Right here in front of us Just what our apartment does When we're not around Does not concern us She's the horrible esthete At a place where her friends all meet While her clock enforces its conceit And her mirror checks out other things And her walls stand a little more at ease And her books they chat so expertly And her cups and saucers get some sleep And things get all together neat At the clicking of the key Returns the horrible esthete --- Apartment Song - The Tragically Hip
