Madhouse is a 1990 film starring Kirstie Alley and John Larroquette as a successful married couple whose idyllic California life is ruined when their house is overrun by unwelcome houseguests. This begins when their mail is delayed due to forwarding issues and they find out a cousin, Fred, and his wife, Bernice are coming to visit on the day they are expected to arrive. Though a little unpleasant, this only lasts five days...until Bernice falls on the way to the airport and is instructed by her doctor not to leave until she delivers (six months.) Things progressively get worse as a series of unfortunate events finds Fred gone to find himself and more and more people moving into the house, destroying it in the process. Ultimately, after fifty days of hell, the couple reclaim their home in a violent act of revenge.
Step into the worldwide madhouse
Meet kings and fanatic believers
Come and play the game of chance among
Noble men and plain deceivers
It hits me with the speed of a bullet
That's just left the muzzle of a gun
And it's just lika rollercoaster
Everything carries on
Outside the nightly traffic
And the sound of an ambulance
All I get is the feeling
I've caught the relevance
It's a madhouse
The battle begins
On my doorstep
Trying to get in
The neighbourhood sleeps pretty unknowing
While the madness surely wakes me up
The fear I feel, is it unfounded?
