Umphrey’s McGee
Alex’s House
Alex has a new house
Maybe I could see it
Maybe I could check it out (check it out)
Nothing like a new yard
Maybe room for two cars
Alex has new kid
Brother in the oven
Mother should be done by Christmastime
Then it will be colder
Alex should be older
Alex has a sister
She's a little smaller
Alex will be taller for a while
I don't think she knows that
Alex got a new house
And in her memories
I hope she keeps a place for me
But I believe that I'll be in there somewhere (somewhere somewhere)
I think I know she knows me now
But only 'cause I've been around
I hope that I can say the same for mine
[Spoken]
Tag two!
[Sung]
Alex has some new rags
Really like to see them
Really like to check them out (check them out)
Nothing like some new digs
Especially when they're schoolware
Alex has a new house
Maybe I could see it
Maybe I could check it out (check it out)
Now she's got a new yard
Maybe room for two cars
[Spoken]
2nd chorus
[Sung]
She builds her world around
Knowing she'll be safe and sound
Then soon it seems I'll be another face forgotten (don't forget me)
I think I know she knows me now
But only 'cause I've been around
I hope that I can say the same for mine
