This Is My Address

come into my house and see how
I've arranged the cables wrapped in
neat piles and folded the napkins and sorted
screws and took a hammer to my
walls and hung some pictures
as if I had just moved in, but I've been -- living here for years
and I'm not sure if I'm meant to stay
I've been living here for years
in a temporary sort of way

come into my house and see how a
door makes an entrance and a sofa a living
room a bed a bedroom
and a pillow and a blanket would you like to join me
in pretending a home pretending I live here
as I boil some water as if -- I've been living here for years
and I'm not sure if I'm meant to stay
I've been living here for years
in a temporary sort of way

come into my house it is a real house
with a green floors and running
water and a gas furnace to keep it
warm this is no doll house, this is
life-size this is a refrigerator and elec-
tricity and china I have china and polka dot
glasses they are from the twenties and they are
not even chipped --I've been living here for years
and I'm not sure if I'm meant to stay
I've been living here for years
in a temporary sort of way

come into my house I just vacuumed all the
corners as if vacuuming could make corners could make
floors could make a room and
rooms could make and an apartment and
an apartment could make a home could mean
I live here "this is my address"
with a doorbell and a slot in my door for
mail you can send me letters do send me letters
