Screen falling off the door, door hanging off the hinges
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We tore up the walls we slept on couches
We lifted this house, we lifted this house
Firecrackers in the east my car parked south
Your hands on my cheeks, your shoulder in my mouth
I was up against the wall on the west mezzanine
We rattle this town, we rattle this scene
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
Screen falling off the door, door hanging off the hinges
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We were up against the wall on the west mezzanine
We rattle this town, we rattle this scene
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
Live my life without
Station wagon rides
Fumbling around the back
Not one seat belt on
Wait for summertime
Coming up for air
Now it's all a wash
Now it's all a wash
(Screen falling off the door)
(Door hanging off the hinges) Live my life without
(My feet are still)
(Sore my back's on the fringes) coming up for air
(We tore up the walls)
(We slept on couches) now it's all a wash
(We lifted this house)
(We lifted this house) I want everyone
(Firecrackers in the east)
(My car parked south) racing down the hill
(Your hands on my cheeks)
(Your shoulder in my mouth) I am faster than you
(I was up against the wall)
(On the west mezzanine) wait for summertime
(We rattle this town) wait for summertime
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun, Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
(We lifted this house)
(We lifted this house)
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
This house is falling apart
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We tore up the walls we slept on couches
We lifted this house, we lifted this house
Firecrackers in the east my car parked south
Your hands on my cheeks, your shoulder in my mouth
I was up against the wall on the west mezzanine
We rattle this town, we rattle this scene
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun
What do you know? This house is falling apart
What can I say? This house is falling apart
We got no money, but we got heart
We're gonna rattle this ghost town
This house is falling apart
Screen falling off the door, door hanging off the hinges
My feet are still sore my back's on the fringes
We were up against the wall on the west mezzanine
We rattle this town, we rattle this scene
Oh, Anna Sun
Oh, Anna Sun

Damn it! Sometimes a song just blindsides you and you have to comment on it...
The verses sound a lot like a wild party, complete with passing out on random couches, body parts tangled with someone else. Some fun was had, yes. (maybe)
The chorus, despite all its "this house is falling apart"s, doesn't seem to mind this because of the song's tone. Also, I like the insertion of "we've got no money, but we've got heart", indicating what's important in the decisions of one's life.
The bridge almost made me cry, however, the first time I heard it. "Station wagon rides" seems to refer to family life, having a wife and kids and taking a road trip together. To live without that is pretty sad if it's what you always thought about when you were young.
I'll wait for summertime, but I know full-well it's all a wash.
