Sandlot Houses
Words & Music by Vikki Lee

They've got these sandlot houses
They're the electric kind
Near rivers out of water
With shopping malls behind
You say you're leavin' but it doesn't show
You're so close to everything, nothing comes close

There is no deviation
In all the boys and the girls
Early gene intervention
Guaranteed perfect world
You say you're leavin' but you never go
It's so close to everything, nothing comes close

Rotating castles with inflated stairs
Oh, they make you feel like you're walking on air
You are walking on air

Nobody's planting gardens
And there is no winter rain
Just manufactured weather
Every day's just the same

Sleep darling angel, this is your home
So close to everything, nothing comes close

It won't be long, we'll be movin' along
To some frozen planet, if nothing goes wrong,
If nothing goes wrong

They've got these sandlot houses
They're the electric kind
Neurotic automation
And they've got you in mind

You say you're leaving but
They don't let you go
So close to everything, nothing comes close

Oh, they make you feel like you're walking on air,
You are walking on air

They've got these sandlot houses
