I've lived in apartments, I've lived in a home I travelled in trailers when I used to roam But now in these places you won't have me dead 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head I do what I want to, no worries, no care If anyone bugs me I climb up my stairs Way up to a level where I feel no threat 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head If you're trying something, I couldn't care less I don't rush for busses and trains are a mess There's no one to care for, I don't need a bed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head I like how I'm living, I'm nobody's slave My head's above water, so don't make a wave There are no doors to lock and no dogs to be fed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head So why should I move when the neighborhood's right? No taxes to pay and no landlord to fight Now I call this living, what's more, like I said 'Cause Im happy I live in a split-level head Now you keep your ulcers, your ills, and what, too You sure couldn't have them and live like I do You think I hace problems, but you do instead 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head I live with two people, I like both of them He likes both of me and I like both of him They're my alter-ego and to them I'm wed 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head There's no simple status in my neighborhood And its that kind of thinking, that keeps it so good And I don't take the lead when I like to be led 'Cause I'm happy I live in a split-level head
