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
