I've been down to the bottom
Of the pile
I've been down there for.....
..A long long while
I ain't the first and I
Won't be the last
To wallow around
I'm a LONG GONEΒ Β past

I don't know why
I don't know when
How I was torn
Or if I'll mend
Ain't so flexible
That I can bend
In redeeming my past
My future I will spend

I'll spend it all
Beatin' my head against the wall

Pay the piper
For a long sad tune
And make my peace
In a rubber room

No I ain't the first
Won't be the last
To wallow around
In a long gone past
To wallow around
To wallow around.. To wal......

The futures looming
Like a twisting wind
Swirling around till
Your head will spin
And then..its all just......
Gone--on a gust of wind

I'll spend it all
Beatin' my head against the wall
And then pay the piper
For a looooooongggg sad tune
And then make my peace
Make my peace.......
I'll make my peace!
IN A RUBBER ROOM!
