Empty room

hallo, hallo
Find out all the people
Ask them how they want it
Find out where they're living
Build it in their garden

Make it out of cardboard
Painted plastic windows
Make a door to walk through
Lock it on the inside

Empty like a vacuum
Full of nothing people
No-one ever sees them
Through the plastic window

Take a light inside us
Shine it on the ceiling
Shadows of our image
That frighten little children

An empty room is all around us
Like a world of strangled fears
Too many frightened people
Live there by themselves

Find some yellow curtains
Light the empty fireplace
Polish all the mirrors
Reflect the human body

Paint the walls so brightly
Tell the frightened children
Let them see outside
Life can be such fun

Tell the frightened children
Life can be such fun
