Keeping The Curtains Closed

He's been waiting for the bus to come, Been waiting there since 3
And when it comes around he will be as Happy as a boy can be
But people worry about each other
Some even worry about me

And so he stands at the busstop
At the back of the line
And there's too many people
And there's not enough time
So now he's keeping the curtains closed

He was waiting for the revolution
To rumble down his street
'Coz when it came around
He was sure that we'd all
Get enough to eat

But at the busstop he's still on that line
And there's too many people
And there's not enough time
So he's keeping the curtains closed

And there's no point asking
What went wrong
Nothing as far as I can see
He just stood there at the busstop
At the back of the line
And there were too many people
There was not enough time
And now he's keeping the curtains closed
He's just keeping the curtains closed
He's just keeping the curtains closed
He's just keeping the curtains closed
