I'll take asking price
Simply make an offer
Just came on the market
Sometimes I'm near the water
My hearth is cracked and cold
Just needs a little spackle
My windows are quite old
But I bet you'd make em sparkle
Hardwood's a tad worn out
The attic's full of bats
The stairs only go south
So there's no turning back
Once you pass my threshold
You realize you can't leave
As my aches take ahold
You appreciate for me
My creaky pipes
Your sleepless nights
My unkempt lawn
Your neighbors' blight
They don't know
Your chronic fight
Trapped in the basement
Searching for light
Yes, I'm prime real estate
Simply make an offer
Enslaved for 30 years
Left with an empty coffer
