Translation
Bilingual
Stonecutters made them from stones
Chosen specially for you and I
Who will live inside
The mountaineers gathered timber, piled high
In which to take along
Traveling many miles, knowing they'd get here
When they got here, all exhausted
On the roof leaks, they got started
And now when the rain comes
We can be thankful
Ooh-ah-ooh
When the mountaineers saw that everything fit
They were glad and so they took off
Thought we were due for
A change or two around this place
When they get back, they're all mixed up
But there's no one to stay with
ย
The village used to be all one really needs
Now it's filled with hundreds and hundreds of chemicals
That mostly surround you, you wish to flee, but it's not like you
So listen to me, listen to me
Oh-oh, and when the morning comes, we will step outside
We will not find another man in sight
We like the newness, the newness of all
That has grown in our garden, struggling for so long
Whenever I was a child, I wonder what if my name had changed
Into something more productive, like Roscoe
Been born in 1891
Waiting with my aunt Roseline
Thought we were due for
A change or two around this place
When they get back, they're all mixed up
With no one to stay with
ย
1891
They roamed around and foraged
They made their house from cedars
They made their house from stone
Oh, they're a little like you
And they're a little like me
We have all we need
Thought we were due for
A change or two around this place
This place, this place
When they get back, they're all mixed up
With no one to stay with
When they get back, they're all mixed up
With no one to stay with
