R&P; Build a home...?

Well...

When we build Our House (Crosby Stills Nash & Young), the first thing we need to think of is location. I'm thinking that a "House by The Sea" (Iron & Wine) would be nice. To build it, we will definitely need a "House Carpenter" (Bob Dylan), but "If I Were A Carpenter" (Johnny Cash), we might not have to hire one. It might be nice to have some "Grey Stables" (Iron & Wine) too. The "Home" (Marc Broussard) itself could be "Made Of Stone" (The Stone Roses). And then of course we'd need to "Paint" (Soul Coughing) it. We'd paint it "Any Colour You Like" (Pink Floyd). So maybe we could "Paint It Black" (The Rolling Stones), or we could make it a "Pink House" (John Mellencamp). We should have lots of "Windows" (Guster), because we'd need "Just A Little Light" (Grateful Dead). "Landscaping" (Inside) is also important. We should plant a "Fruit Tree" (Nick Drake), and maybe some "Flowers In The Window" (Travis), and a "Trampled Rose" (Tom Waits) or two.
