The Lyrics

Trying to buy a house comes with a lot of difficulties. You gotta make sure that you've covered everything, especially when it comes to disastrous locations...
Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah

This house here, we're all for it
Just one issue that's unfortunate
Must I spell it out? It's obvious:
Location seems really ominous, ha-ah-ha-ah
"Liveable"
Nice word, can be really damn flexible
You don't have to be an intellectual
To know that doom will be eventual, ha-ah-ha-ah

Pen to paper, pen to paper
That will happen, but only later
Just got to ask this, it may sound dramatic:
Will there be lava inside of my attic?

So is the volcano dead? Tell me
That thing up there feels real doom-y
Sorry, my brain fails pretty horribly
When real danger's faced, words aren't better
So is the volcano dead? Tell me
I don't want mountains that hurt-y
Vocabulary's untethered
When death risk is not gone altogether

Ooh-ooh
When hot death risk's not gone altogether (ha-ah-ah-ah)
Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah

Ad said that this house defined "opulence"
Volcano put way aside, yeah, it's obvious
Someone put their money in all of this
You could even say with "fancy", it's synonymous, ha-ah-ha-ah
It's such a waste
Wouldn't have invested in it, just in case
The mountain right above it blows right up, I'd rate
That as a bigger issue than the garage space, ha-ah-ha-ah

Want my paper? Want my paper?
Sorry, that will have to come later
Enthusiastic at first, but goddamn it
I don't want lava to turn me to ashes

So is the volcano dead? Tell me
Should be up front, that's a doozy
To leave to last with just a "probably"
It's a nasty fate to not "never"
So is the volcano dead? Tell me
I don't want magma to burn me
Like you've done because you never
Brought this up before, my trust is severed

Trust is severed, trust is severed
Why was it ignored? All trust is severed
Trust is severed, trust is severed
Prove my fear is wrong or trust is severed

Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah

So is the volcano dead? Tell me
Said "yes" twenty times straight to me
Get someone skilled in volcanology
That's the real word, sounds bland, whatever
So is the volcano dead? Tell me
Pity, the house is real purty
But 'til you prove booms are never
I won't buy a house from you, you dense jerk

You're a dense jerk, you're a dense jerk
I could've been doomed 'cause you're a dense jerk
You're a dense jerk, you're a dense jerk
Whole family screwed 'cause you're a dense jerk
You're a dense jerk, you're a dense jerk
"Floor is lava"? True 'cause you're a dense jerk
You're a dense jerk, you're a dense jerk
My research sucked? True, still: you're a dense jerk

Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh
Ha-ah-ah-ah

Marge Simpson: But all I did was tell the truth.
Lionel Hutz: Of course you did. But there's "the truth" and "the truth."
