lyrics

All day, peering through the blinds
Scowling at the passersby
That's about the extent of your day
And tomorrow will be much the same

All night, you won't put out the light
Is it paranoia or genuine fright?
When no one here would do you any harm
But you've got other cause for alarm

And I feel sad for you
Cause you have nothing else to do
I feel bad for you
And I hope you can find a better way
To live the rest of your days

Three sisters, hiding from the sun
Spinsters, behind the drapes they spun
And God forbid you'd take their parking space
Well there'd be some hell to pay

A new day in decades of decay
Trying to redirect the winds of change
I don't know how it could come to this
But you don't want to coexist
You don't want to coexist

All day, peering through the blinds
Scowling at the passersby
