Xtc - Let's Make a Den - Текст песни

Let's make a den 
What shall we use? 
Make it out of hay 
Who will be leader? 
In it we can play at both being mothers and fathers until we have 
children of our own. 

Let's make a den 
What shall we use? 
Make it out of wood 
Who will be leader? 
Wouldn't it be good if we could fight off rival gangs and take total 
possession of the hill 
For the rest of our days? 

Isn't that what we can all look forward to when we grow up? 
Isn't that what we can all look forward to? 
Behind the door, women and men 
Love and war inside of our den. 

Let's make a den 
What shall we use? 
Make it out of bricks 
Who will be leader? 
In it how the sticks and stones will fly but my oh my won't we have 
fun when later on we patch it up? 

Let's make a den 
What shall we use? 
Make it from cement 
Who will be leader? 
In it we can pent up all of our fears but give presents each Christmas 
like there was nothing ever wrong 
For the rest of our days. 

Isn't that what we can all look forward to when we grow up? 
Isn't that what we can all look forward to? 
Behind the door, women and men 
Love and war inside of their den. 

Well you can wear your brand new nurse's outfit, 
And I can wear my brand new cowboy suit. 
Everything unchanging 
Just furniture arranging 

Let's make a den 
What shall we use? 
Make it underground 
Who will be leader? 
Protect us from the flash and sound of the big stick they drop just 
to stop us from cuddling and hanging on 
For the rest of our days.
