lyrics

Built a fortress in my house
It will keep us warm
we’ll stomp and shout and chase away the storm
take my hand, come inside

you can hide behind my couch
I will keep you safe
we’ll light some candles, talk about our lives
take my hand, come inside

I don’t care much for this revolution
but there’s no war in here
so come on in and have a beer
and we’ll wait it out

I’ve got lots of books to read
and plenty board games too
and an old guitar with lots of extra strings
will you sing, sing with me?

I’ve got supplies to last a year
I hope it don’t take that long
and I need someone to help me stay strong
to keep me sane
to help me hold on

I don’t care much for this revolution
but there’s no war in here
so come on in and have a beer
and we’ll wait it out

they will say
“you’re either on our side or we will knock you down”
but I won’t budge
we’re gonna find some common ground and build from there

I’ve got water for a long time
I’ve got food for a long time
I’ve got beer for a long time
I need you for a long time
and maybe
in a year or so
things will be better

I’ve got water for a long time
I’ve got food for a long time
I’ve got beer for a long time
I need you for a long time
and maybe
in ten years or so
things will be better

I don’t care much for this revolution
but there’s no war in here
so come on in and have no fear
cause if we all run out of beer
I’ve got a little whiskey here

and we’ll wait it out
