Man Behind the Glass

Fill out form B section 17

There's a queue for the line for the chance to be seen

Just down the hall a seasick green

Take a number take a seat

I'll read to you from the holy book

Mistakes were made you're on the hook

But cheer up son, the abattoirs been cleaned

It's clean

You can file a motion stake a claim

It's a drop ion the ocean of the state's disdain

You can twist and shout you can make a scene

But the only way out is to get through me

I only want what's best for you

My heart is pure my aim is true

So get down on your knees and remember not to breathe

I'm the man behind the glass

Man behind the glass

I can see but not be seen

Might I interest you in a length of rope

Or some other Kafkaesque pathetic trop

To bore us both to tears

I've been stuck here so many years

I really can't say why I stay

Maybe you could help me get away

I promise this time will be different

I promise I can change

I'm the man behind the glass

Don't wanna be

The man behind the glass
