The Deserted Cottage

Out in the fields
in the middle of nowhere
stood a deserted cottage
in terrible state.

't Was called the little old shack out back once
mentioned in a song
airconditioned in winter time
you could stay there all day long.

One day a contractor came
with building plans and stuff
he made the cottage fall.

But in my memory
everything stays the way it was
so I can still read from time to time
the newspapers on the wall.

Yes, in terrible state
stood a deserted cottage
in the middle of nowhere...
out in the fields.
