One, two one, two, three Kettle clicking in the corner Heater chewing on the damp There's a bus along the brickwork And a lead that doesn't want the amp You say the middle's still embarrassing I say the start was worse If the neighbour hits the ceiling We'll be quieter on the verse Coats in a pile by the fire door Rain doing nothing new Pretty town out the landing window Ugly room will have to do If the chorus wants a harbour It can wait its turn We've got four walls and a Tuesday And a song we haven't hurt Don't look at the doorway There's nobody there If we need an audience We've got the chairs Again from the top, from the crack in the drum Again if it lives in this room, it's begun Not a show, not a prayer, not a name on a wall Just a night we can finish Or not finish at all Again Count us in like you mean it Then forget that you did There's a spiral on the kick drum Nobody asked who drew the lid Leave the latch on the door Let the street have its say If the sea wants to listen It can come up the stairway Don't look at the doorway There's nobody there If we need a witness We've got the air Again from the top, from the crack in the drum Again if it lives in this room, it's begun Not a show, not a prayer, not a name on a wall Just a night we can finish Or not finish at all Say the line till it stops being clever Say the line till it sits in the mouth If it still sounds like wanting That's enough for now Again from the top, from the crack in the drum Again if it lives in this room, it's begun Not a show, not a prayer, not a name on a wall Just a night we can finish Or not finish at all Again Again That's it unplug it
