Second Home By The Sea Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Typhoon TA 

Cover art for Second Home By The Sea lyrics by Genesis

Is a burglar going to care who/what lives in a house he's about to try and rob? He's more interested in what they own that he can sell!!

For people who've read the comments on Home by the Sea, rather than just jumped at the chance to have a go at somebody, Phil Collins has said that this song is about the supernatural. So I can write what I wrote, smartass.

Also for ghosts trapped somewhere for ages, what else are they going to talk about? The view out the windows? From their point of view their lives prior to getting stuck somewhere would be the most interesting thing they could talk about.

Finally, who the heck knows what people are going to write songs about? People think of all kinds of different things and turn them into songs, some that don't even have words.
