[00:00.84] There was a wonderful structure to the city
[00:03.35] And it put my cares to rest
[00:20.12] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[00:24.36] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[00:28.61] Takin' inventory of his life
[00:30.85] Seein' snapshots chronologically inline
[00:33.85] Something told him he should look around and tidy up
[00:36.60] He collected many things but never quite enough
[00:39.61] Tried lookin' at it from a new perspective
[00:42.35] Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
[00:45.10] Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived
[00:48.12] Never asked permission, he just hopes that they forgive
[00:51.10] I don't want to go like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[00:54.37] At least let me clean my room
[00:56.87] I don't want to leave like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[01:00.35] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
[01:03.27] Make my people make decisions, wonderin' what to do, oh
[01:09.38] Should they keep it on display
[01:13.15] Or redecorate?
[01:15.62] Blankets over mirrors, she tends to like it
[01:17.64] She's not afraid of her reflection
[01:19.12] But of what she might see behind it
[01:21.14] She had plans to change her name, yeah
[01:23.62] Just not the traditional way, yeah
[01:26.96] Haunted by a couple big mistakes
[01:28.95] She covers all the dents with the way she decorates
[01:31.79] Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed
[01:34.79] So she ripped them off the mirror, stepped back and she said
[01:37.78] I don't want to go like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[01:41.06] At least let me clean my room
[01:43.53] I don't want to leave like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[01:46.54] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
[01:50.15] Make my people make decisions, wonderin' what to do, oh
[01:55.84] Should they keep it on display
[01:59.60] Or redecorate?
[02:13.36] With the bells and the whistles scaled back
[02:15.60] Like an isolated track
[02:17.10] And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated
[02:19.72] Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week
[02:22.28] He might have made it if he lived on a different street
[02:25.03] I repeat, scaled back and isolated
[02:27.31] He says he likes an open schedule, but he mostly hates it
[02:30.05] If you're running to his room, take a breath before you break-in
[02:32.79] Put your ear up to the door, tell me can you hear him saying?
[02:36.04] I don't want to go like this
[02:39.04] At least let me clean my room
[02:41.79] I don't want to leave like this
[02:44.78] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
[02:48.04] Make my people make decisions, wondering what to do, oh
[02:53.89] Should they keep it on display
[02:57.63] Or redecorate?
[02:59.66] I don't want to go like this (Go like this)
[03:02.33] At least let me clean my room (Clean my room)
[03:05.53] I don't want to leave like this (Leave like this)
[03:08.28] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is (To do is)
[03:11.52] Make my people make decisions, wondering what to do, oh
[03:17.01] Should they keep it on display (On display)
[03:21.01] Or redecorate?
[03:25.26] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[03:31.27] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[03:32.85] Or redecorate?
[03:36.85] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[03:42.18] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[03:44.24] Or redecorate?
