Scanlan album cover.png

It's February! And also, apparently, 1977.  Here's a fleshed out version of Sam's cover of Brick House (originally by The Commodores).  The mp3 download and lyrics are here on this site, and the Youtube video is here.  And with this, I am officially out of Scanlan Songs.  I had a nice backlog sitting on my hard drive for a while, as I prepared to go into musical-making-mode.  But I've now used all of that up.  Been trying to post consistently on the first of the month, now that I've made a Patreon (which you can check out here, if you are so inclined).  However, I've got a lot of work to do before the musical drops on the 23rd, so I'm not sure what March's song will look like or when it will be posted.  You'll have to settle for 46 brand new songs, in the style of Hamilton :)

Sick House

Ow, it's a sick house
It's Mordenkainen's, magnificent and proud
It's a sick house
This pad is stacked and that's a fact
Ain't holding nothing back

Ow, it's a sick house
Well put-together, everybody knows
This is how the story goes

You know it's got everything
That a party needs to get a rest, yeah, yeah
How can you lose with all this food?
Have a chicken.  Or a chicken!  Or another chicken-

Ow, it's a sick house
Yeah, it's the one, the only one, built like an Escher drawin'

The rooms it has, in this private plane
Make an old gnome wish for younger days, yeah, yeah
The servants are nearly a hundred strong

Make things out of clouds and then poof they are gone

 

Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down now

Sick house
Yeah, it's Mordenkainen's, magnificent and proud
It's a sick house
Yeah, she's the one, the only one, furnished like a boss, yeah
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it, shake it
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down now
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it

Ow, a sick house
