...HOUSE OF FUN... by Madness
------------------...........
*Released 1982*
Intro:
(x3),
Verse 1:
Good morning Miss, can I help you son?
Six-teen today, and up for fun.
I'm a big boy now, or so they say,
So if you'll serve, I'll be on my way.
Verse 2:
Box of balloons, with the feather-light touch,
Pack of party-poppers, that pop in the night.
A toothbrush and hairspray, plastic grin,
Miss Clay on all corners, has just walked in.
Chorus 1:
Welcome to the House of Fun, now I've come of age,
Welcome to the House of Fun.
Welcome to the lion's den; temptation's on his way.
Welcome to the House of...
Interlude:
(x2)
Verse 3:
(Am)
N-n-n-n-n-n-no, no miss; you mis-understood,
Six-teen big boy, full pint, in my manhood.
I'm up to date, and the date's today,
So if you'll serve, I'll be on my way.
Chorus 2:
Welcome to the House of Fun, now I've come of age,
Welcome to the House of Fun.
Welcome to the lion's den; temptation's on his way.
Welcome to the House of...
Interlude:
(x2),
Middle 8:
I'm sorry son, but we don't stock,
Party gimmicks, in this shop.
Try the House of Fun; it's quicker if you run;
This is a chemist's, not a Joke Shop!
Verse 4:
Party hats, simple enough, clear,
Compre-hende? Savvy? Understand? Do you hear?
A pack of party hats, with the coloured tips,
Too late; Gorgon's heard gossip.
Well hello Joe, hello Miss Clay; many happy returns from the day.
Chorus 3:
Welcome to the House of Fun, now I've come of age,
Welcome to the House of Fun.
Welcome to the lion's den; temptation's on his way.
Welcome to the House of Fun.
Chorus 4:
Welcome to the House of Fun, now I've come of age,
Welcome to the House of Fun.
Welcome to the lion's den; temptation's on his way.
Welcome to the House of Fun.
