we're living in the house that the Blues Brothers built
the house of the miracle
of the fool
we are learning to knit from invisible hope
to keep us warm
bake dreams into bread
running from rednecks, from Nazis, Princess Leia
singing our song
on a mission from God
knowing that fortune favors the fool
chasing destiny down highways
over rivers
back home
where we are
living in the house that the Blues Brothers built
