Lyrics Paul Kelly – Clean This House

Its so disturbing, the rumours that I hear
Its been so long since we talked and drank some beer
I’m here to tell you before you fade from view
Where is the man I knew?

You better clean this house, everybody’s talking
Clean this house, they really think its shocking
Clean this house, get that shit off the table
Clean this house, before you get unable
Too much junk on your stairs
Too much junk everywhere
Clean it up, get it out
Do I have to spell it out?

Its disgusting
It’s a matter of some concern
You’re the last one to know
Always the last one to know

Tell me not to worry, tell me its OK
Tell me you’re not dying, tell me to go away
But you better clean this house, everybody’s talking
Clean this house, they really think its shocking
Clean this house, this place is really leaking
Clean this house, it looks like one long weekend
Too much junk on your stairs
Too much junk everywhere
Clean it up, get it out
Do I have to spell it out?

Too much junk
Too much junk
Everybody knows it but you

You better clean this house, everybody’s talking
Clean this house, they really think its shocking
Clean this house, this place is overflowing
Clean this house, I think your slip is showing
