[Verse 1]
There's a strange grown man in a creepy coat
In the bathroom mirror, knock me down on the floor
I don't know him, I don't know him
[Verse 2]
There's an aging man with a narrow face
He's been following me around for days
I don't know him, I don't know him
[Pre-Chorus]
My, the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating
Oh, my the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating
[Chorus 1]
I thought I'd have a nice house, to blow my brains out
Or a fast car, to run from danger
My own place, where I could get away
[Verse 3]
There's a strange grown man with a few grey hairs
In my own twin bed, I don't think he belongs there
No, I don't
[Pre-Chorus]
My, the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating
Oh, my the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating
[Chorus 1]
I thought I'd have a nice house to blow my brains out
Or a fast car to run from danger
My own place where I could get away
[Chorus 2]
I thought I'd have a good wife to kiss me goodnight
Or a fast car to run from danger
My own place where I could get away
[Bridge]
Hey now, hey now, hey now
We go, away now, away now, away now
We can, escape now, escape now, escape now
We can, escape now, escape now, escape now
[Chorus 1]
I thought I'd have a nice house to blow my brains out
Or a fast car to run from danger
My own place where I could get away
[Chorus 2]
I thought I'd have a good wife to kiss me goodnight
Or a fast car to run from danger
My own place where I could get away
