• The Destruction Of The Art Deco House

They’re knocking down that Art Deco hous, The clawfoot tub is cracked and crushe, The mattress springs and the telephone wire, Gnash now through the air like crocodile, Everything is coming up in 2 x 4’, Concrete walls and concrete floor, High rise... The Destruction Of The Art Deco House lyrics »
