Lyrics

Eggshells

Close doors behind you please
No food in the settees
This is your code of conduct
These are your rules and routines
Everything goes back
Where you found it please
Shoes in closets, and
Hang up your coats and keys, and

Tread lightly
You're walking on eggshells round here
Tread lightly
There's no room for error round here

We compartmentalize
Our rubbish here
Nothing goes to waste
Do I make myself clear?
There's no room for error
There's no guest waiver here
So make yourself at home
Just don't get too comfortable
