Lyrics

[Spoken Intro] Uh, the next song is a little bit odd, about - yes, well, well, may you laugh - it's odd, perhaps, in its simplicity. It has two occupants of the scenario, but both of them are little bit fictional. Somehow or other, they or he or she or it are there in a room and they try to work out where the door is [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] He's a blind man, crouching by the pavement She's only seeing with his third eye And clutching at the astral shadows Of every passer-by [Verse 2] He's a wild man, trumping all the answers; She's a wild girl, trying to keep his feet on the floor In whispered physical litaniеs: "Stay away from the door" [Verse 3] "Oh, but we're all in this togеther", he says "Three-legged race across the floor; If only you'd loosen the handkerchief Then I'd forget the door" [Verse 4] "Ooh, that feels so much better", he says "Now you forget everything that I've said before And sit there all by yourself While I walk through the door" They're a blind man, crouching by the pavement Only seeing with his third eye And clutching at the astral shadows Of the door of a room called 'I' [Instrumental]
