lyrics

Me to clean the dishes and move all that's heavy,
you to kill the vermin and us to burn what shouldn't grow here,
what else do we need to live here, what else do we need at home?
- Walnuts and ice-cream, camomile and sage, guitar and amp, kisses and sheets.

That's what we need at home.
That's what we need and a home.
That's what we have as a home.
That's what I need and you.

Good and dry beech wood, a hole in the sky, records and tapes, butter and fly,
good soil and soap and a shop nearby – for tools and gas, bread and bulbs,
our bodies and hearts, hands and heads, tears and oranges that came all the way from China.

Enough water in the pond – besides that any weather is ok and will surely do,
a farmer's wit, a doctor's word, dancing and the chance to dance,
plates, cups, some cuttlery and flesh and my axes, yeah, my axes!

That's what we need at home.
That's what I need – and you.
