The Hoosiers
Wearing Down the Carpet
[Verse 1]
He walked for miles and miles but never left his room
Dramas unfolding in his head
Life threatening adventures
From the comfort of the couch
[Verse 2]
A blazing fanfare that would never leave his lips
Nor even see the light of day
Earth shattering disasters
From the safety of his settee
[Chorus]
Oh oh, oh oh
Wearing down the carpet, whoa-oh-oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Content to end up where he started
Wearing down the carpet
[Verse 3]
They came from far and wide, just teacups in a storm
The universe like putty in his hands
All hail the conjurer
Who never left his room
Who never left his room
[Chorus]
Oh oh, oh oh
Wearing down the carpet, whoa-oh-oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Content to end up where he started
Wearing down the carpet
(Wearing down the carpet)
[Verse 4]
Discovered worlds but never covered any ground
So many friends for someone so alone
Just a worn down carpet
Is all he has to show
[Instrumental]
