The Statue Song Indoors Again (Lyrics)
i'm tired of holding this goddamn sword
i'm tired of standing still
i'm tired of looking dignified
against my will
i'm tired of looking at tourists
with their stupid pig-faced grins
i just long for a night
if you think it's alright
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
i remember the warmth of a distant embrace
but i do not recall the name
i know we had a falling out
but i can't say who was to blame
i remember the father's burning rage
and the mothers cold refrain
i once threw pebbles at that window
to get indoors again
to get indoors again
to get indoors again
to get indoors again
now the father's become a friend of mine
and the rain's my mistress fair
her snow and icy eye to eye
but the wind won't mess up my hair
and the pigeon shit ain't as bad
as you might think it would be friend
i just long for a night
if you think it's alright
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
well i hooked up with this hotel maid
she was somewhat startled at first
but we started talking then after a while
she quenched my lethal thirst
she said you're no different from most men
i've been out with dear friend
and then she asked me how it felt right now
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
to be indoors again
tonight i'll dream of being a pigeon
on rooftops in the sun
tonight i'll dream of reading newspapers
the left and right wing ones
and i will dream of seeing a movie
jerry lewis meets bergman
and i will dream of a scoop of ice cream
and being indoors again
just being indoors again
just being indoors again
just being indoors again
just being indoors again
well i had to wake up sometime from
this dream of being real
they put me here exposed to the world
and expect me not to feel
so if you think your life's not going anywhere
please consider me dear friend
out here in the fog with the tourists and the dog
while you're indoors again
while you're indoors again
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
so when you think your life's not going anywhere
