Lyrics für Country House von Blur
intro
So the story begins
verse
City dweller, successful fella
Thought to himself "Oops, I′ve got a lot of money (I got money)
Caught in a rat race, terminally
I'm a professional cynic but my heart′s not in it
I'm paying the price of living life at the limit
Caught up in the century's anxiety"
Yes, it preys on him (it preys on him)
He′s getting thin (getting thin)
Try the simple life
chorus
He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
Oh, it′s like an animal farm, lots of rural charm in the country
verse
He's got morning glory and life′s a different story
Everything's going jackanory (jackanory)
Touched with his own mortality
He′s reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac
It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland (close your eyes, yeah)
Oh, it′s the century's remedy
For the faint at heart (faint at heart)
A brand-new start (new start)
Try the simple life
chorus
He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn′t drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
But you′ll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
hook
In the country
In the country
In the country
bridge
Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don't know why?
Blow, blow me out, I am so sad, I don′t know why?
chorus
Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
Oh, it's like an animal farm lots of rural charm in the country
Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country
He′s got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
But you′ll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
La, la, la, la
outro
I wanna be
I wanna be
Writer(s): Damon Albarn, Graham Leslie Coxon, Alexander James Steven, Alexander Rowntree David

Bedeutung
The song 'Country House' by Blur tells the story of a city dweller who, feeling overwhelmed by the fast-paced urban life, escapes to the countryside seeking a simpler and more peaceful existence. Through vivid imagery and metaphors like 'animal farm' and 'morning glory,' the song explores themes of escapism, disillusionment, and the desire for a fresh start away from the pressures of modern society.
