Dream House

I promised I would do it  
  And this promise I have kept.
I’ve built your giant dream house
  And I started with the steps.

The bricks that were laid,
  Are in a beautiful sequence.
They’re precious yet so perfect,
  With a elegant privacy fence.

It may have too many windows,
  And not quite enough doors.
The biggest house you’ve seen
  Is truly and all yours.

Now the time’s come for you,
  To sit right by the man.
‘Cause I built your dream house,
  And made it out of sand.
