"House Divided" lyrics

This... house... is... divided!

This house divided against itself
Can never stand
It takes a new beginning
To kill a bitter end
Sing another sad, sad song
For the summertime
Scream another sad, sad
Summer song!

Divided, this house will fall
Bad idea, I know
Bet I think I will
Bad idea, I know

You could never
Look me in the eye
And feel good about where
You stand as a man
You could never stand alone
Given where you stand as a man

This house divided against itself
Can never stand
It takes a new beginning
To kill a bitter end

Left me at the last
"Good idea," I thought
Left to hang myself
Bad idea, I know

You could never
Look me in the eye
And feel good about where
You stand as a man

This house divided against itself
Can never stand
It takes a new beginning
To kill a bitter end
Sing another sad, sad song
For the summertime
Scream another sad, sad
Summer song!

For the summertime!

This house will never stand...

You could never
Look me in the eye!
You could never
Look me in my eye!

This house divided against itself
Can never stand
It takes a new beginning
To kill a bitter end
Sing another sad, sad song
For the summertime
Scream another sad, sad
Summer song!
