Ⓒ 1989 Ⓟ Corcoran BMI 2021

Only played once live at the band's very first show in 1989. Another Tonebender-era composition that was recorded for Bone Orchard's unfinished/unreleased second record, "Lunatic Fringe" (1992), but was never completed. Redone from scratch this year, especially in light of the scamdemic and other craziness of the last year and a half or so. Came in handy to have a little fuhrer-bunker type location handy until sanity returns to the outside world. Thanks to our "family" of four-legged and winged creatures for their very frequent visits.

All instruments and vocals - M. Corcoran ("the last man standing")

I don't need the sky to rip wide open,
To watch the stars tumble or see god
As long as everyday you're within reach,
I'll keep on falling for you like a house of cards.

In this place I get our fill, with all the time I have to kill,
Let the world go screaming past us, ignorance is bliss.
When I'm in my home sweet home,
It don't get much better than this.

We don't need to set the world on fire.
That'll probably happen all by itself.
I'd rather sit around with you and conspire
On all of the other ways to amuse ourselves.

In this place we get our fix, our very own little pile of bricks.
Let the world go screaming past us, ignorance is bliss.
When I'm in my home sweet home,
It don't get much better than this.

I don't need the promise of eternal wife.
I don't need it all to be etched in stone.
As long as we're together, we'll be set for life
And never have to worry about standing alone.

In this place we get our fix, our very own little pile of bricks,
Let the world go screaming past us, ignorance is bliss.
When I'm in my home sweet home
It don't get much better than this.
