House of glass es una de las canciones de Róisín Murphy, la sexta entre las incluidas en su tercer álbum en solitario, Hairless toys (2015).
El audiovisual es la continuación del correspondiente a Unputdownable, y contiene como audio una remezcla del tema en cuestión a cargo de Maurice Falton. Dirigido por Róisín Murphy, y estrenado el 3 de diciembre de 2015. La artista comenta: "El vídeo de 'House of glass' es especial para mí porque es autobiográfico, de cuando viví en Sheffield. Me llenó de alegría que uno de mis productores favoritos, Maurice Falton, quisiese remezclarla".
Letra
We were glass house girls
In our plastic wigs and pearls
In a crazy house
From within and from without
You could see right through
See the things that people do
There's no place to hide
When you're lit from the inside
Overblown
People like us
From broken homes
Never throw stones
Leave us alone
We were glass house girls
Full of joie de vivre and verve
Built a house of glass
Out of fragments from the blast
When it's all revealed
Must be seen to be believed
Little raincoat sister
Weren't allowed to dream
Made a new reality
People who live in glass houses
No
Every glass house girl
Keeps a secret from the world
What d'you think you see
A naive transparency?
On a stage of glass
How long can the play last?
(You see) every glass house child
Has a trouble inside
Overblown
Little pieces of a broken dream
Scattered in a million different places
People who live in glass (houses)
People who live in glass (houses)
No (No)
Overblown
What d'you think you see
A naive transparency?
On a stage of glass
How long can the play last?
