[Verse 1]
Just because you got it, you don't have to flaunt it
With an endless stream of famous men
Pretty as a portrait, look like Mamah Borthwick
On that Shining Brow of Taliesin

[Chorus]
Someone might try and burn it down
So you'll have to put the fire out
A fortune spent, but that's irrelevant
To build something that's sacred till the end

[Verse 2]
It costs twenty dollars to visit Fallingwater
It's a perfect house where no one lives
Maybe someone once did, but they got evicted
By a busload full of greedy tourists

[Chorus]
And it would take a time machine
To fulfill all of my fantasies
A hidden dream can be embarrassing
And the only thing that's sacred till the end

[Verse 3]
Every time I tempt fate, there's a major earthquake
Heard the people scream as the ceiling fell
Every building damaged, only one left standing
It was Frank Lloyd Wright's Imperial Hotel
[Chorus]
A rumination in my mind
Winding like the ramp at the Guggenheim
And I'm not there yet, but I'm feeling confident
To build something that's sacred till the end
