    This is a snipit from a newer (late 90's) song that was kinda popular. Acutally the new group became popular in the US in the late 90's.

    "There's a place, that I know, safe and sound,
    and no one ever goes there"
    still trying to remember the title of the other Hornsby song. chances are, I won't.

    Yeah, it seems to be running down now. I figure, we'll let it lie for a week or two, and then one of us will go dredge it up and it'll be on again for another couple of weeks. This one could live forever!

    There are those
    Spend the night
    Under bridges
    Over by the river
    Down in the park
    Through the winter

    But there's a house
    That i know
    Safe and warm
    And no-one ever goes there

    Down where the priests
    Bless the wine

    She's been born into the wrong time
    She keeps nonsense on her mind
    She's a poet, she's a builder
    She's as bored as bored can be
    She's a have-not, she's a know-all
    She knows just how to say yes
    She's skating frozen chaos
    Till the no good gods are dead

    But sometimes in the dead of night
    Woken by the city lights
    She wonders how she keeps alive...

    This is the girl who
    Lost the house which
    Paid to the man who
    Put up the rent and
    Threw out the girl to
    Feather his own sweet home

    She's a clueless social climber
    Likes the wrong side of the bed
    She's a pick-me-up and she's a
    drink-to-me
    In the company of friends
    She's tried every variation
    She's so common, she's so cold
    She's homesick for a future
    Can't stomach what she's told

    On every street in every town
    All her days are up and down
    At home among the
    lost-and-founds...

    This is the girl who
    Lost the house which
    Paid to the man who
    Put up the rent and
    Threw out the girl to
    Feather his own sweet home

    Here's the good samaritan
    Looks away and carries on
