I Live in a Split Level Head

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've lived in apartments, I've lived in a home I've traveled in trailers when I used to roam But now in these places, you won't catch me dead 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 2] I do what I want to, no worries, no cares If anyone bugs me, I climb mental stairs Way up to a level where astronauts tread 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 3] It's here time means nothing, I couldn't care less I don't run for buses and trains are a mess There's no lawn to care for, I don't make a bed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 4] I like how I'm living, I'm nobody's slave My head's above water, so don't make a wave There's no door to lock and no dog to be fed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 5] So why should I move when the neighborhood's right? No taxes to pay and no landlord to fight Now I call this living once more as I've said 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 6] Now you keep your ulcers, your ills and what's new You sure couldn't have them and live like I do You think I have problems, but you do instead 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 7] I live with two people, I like both of them He likes both of me and I like both of him They're my alter egos and to them I'm wed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 8] There's no symbol status in my neighborhood It's that kind of thinking that keeps it so good I don't take the lead, but I like to be led 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 1 & 5] I've lived in apartments, I've lived in a home (So why should I move when the neighborhood's right?) I've traveled in trailers when I used to roam (No taxes to pay and no landlord to fight) But now in these places, you won't catch me dead (Now I call this living once more as I've said) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 2 & 6] I do what I want to, no worries, no cares (Now you keep your ulcers, your ills and what's new) If anyone bugs me, I climb mental stairs (You sure couldn't have them and live like I do) Way up to a level where astronauts tread (You think I have problems, but you do instead) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 3 & 7] It's here time means nothing, I couldn't care less (I live with two people, I like both of them) I don't run for buses and trains are a mess (He likes both of me and I like both of him) There's no lawn to care for, I don't make a bed (They're my alter egos and to them I'm wed) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 4 & 8] I like how I'm living, I'm nobody's slave (There's no symbol status in my neighborhood) My head's above water, so don't make a wave (It's that kind of thinking that keeps it so good) There's no door to lock and no dog to be fed (I don't take the lead, but I like to be led) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 5 & 1] So why should I move when the neighborhood's right? (I've lived in apartments, I've lived in a home) No taxes to pay and no landlord to fight (I've traveled in trailers when I used to roam) Now I call this living once more as I've said (But now in these places, you won't catch me dead) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 6 & 2] Now you keep your ulcers, your ills and what's new (I do what I want to, no worries, no cares) You sure couldn't have them and live like I do (If anyone bugs me, I climb mental stairs) You think I have problems, but you do instead (Way up to a level where astronauts tread) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 7 & 3] I live with two people, I like both of them (It's here time means nothing, I couldn't care less) He likes both of me and I like both of him (I don't run for buses and trains are a mess) They're my alter egos and to them I'm wed (There's no lawn to care for, I don't make a bed) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Verse 8 & 4] There's no symbol status in my neighborhood (I like how I'm living, I'm nobody's slave) It's that kind of thinking that keeps it so good (My head's above water, so don't make a wave) I don't take the lead, but I like to be led (There's no door to lock and no dog to be fed) 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head [Outro] What did he say? Well, I don't know what he said (What'd he say? What'd he say? I don't know what he said) Do you know what he said? No, I don't know what he said (What'd he say? You know what he said?) What'd they say? I don't know what they said, what'd they say? (I don't know what he said, what'd he say?) What'd he say? Did you hear what they said? I don't know what they said (You know what he said? I don't know what he said, what'd he say?)
