Empty Room

Hello, hello Find out all the people Ask them how they want it Find out where they're living Build it in their garden Make it out of cardboard Painted plastic windows Make a door to walk through Lock it on the inside Empty like a vacuum Full of nothing people No-one ever sees them Through the plastic window Take a light inside us Shine it on the ceiling Shadows of our image That frighten little children An empty room is all around us Like a world of strangled fears Too many frightened people Live there by themselves Find some yellow curtains Light the empty fireplace Polish all the mirrors Reflect the human body Paint the walls so brightly Tell the frightened children Let them see outside Life can be such fun Tell the frightened children Life can be such fun --- Empty Room - Man
