Lyrics

A billfold in a shoebox
Buried under magazines
Underneath a suitcase, or well beneath the sink

Behind the Picasso
Hole in the sheetrock
Mona Lisa's crooked, but she ain't no thief

Looking in places people hide their money
Such empty spaces that don't keep so good
This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back

Where did I put this month's rent?
Where did I put this month's rent?

A coffee
Jar in the cupboard
Here in my pocket
Crumpled in the corner
In the linen closet

Yesterday's Laundry
Blue pair of trousers
Maybe it got lost
In the washing machine

Looking in places people hide their money
Such empty spaces that don't keep so good
This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back

Where did I put this month's rent?
Where did I put this month's rent?

Looking in places people hide their money
Such empty spaces that don't keep so good

This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back
This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back
This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back
This house eats possessions
You'll never get 'em back

Where did I put this month's rent?
Where did I put this month's rent?
