lyrics

This old place well it's seen some sights, well
It's been a sharehouse for fifteen years

And I don't know if it's time to go
Or if I should stay here for one more year

I can't sleep coz the walls are shaking
My housemates keeping me up all night

The roof is leaking, the doors won't close
But at least we know we're in Collingwood

Chorus:
The doors are banging and creaking, the walls and the paint are peeling
We can't really afford to stay but we'll stick around for one more day
I just wanted some shuteye, but I'm not getting much sleeping
I can't keep from losing my socks but we're all living in Collingwood

I tried begging and I tried reason
They're yelling and moaning and turning on the lights

The walls are thin, I can't block the din of my
Housemates keeping me up all night

I'm like Noah Taylor in an crusty old sharehouse
In Queensland, but it's a whole lot more cold

And raining, the rent that we're paying
It's about a thousand bucks a minute
That's why we have to play this song so fast

But we're real close to where all our friends live
It's all the rage here in Collingwood

CHORUS
