(hmmmmm) Lock the doors,
draw the heavy velvet drapes
(shhh) They're whispering about the shape of the escape (we saw it)
Behind the concrete pillars,
making plans in the dark (uh-huh) With a sermon on their lips
and a brand new mark
When the spotlight hits the floor (tell the truth!) We don't talk
about the old law anymore (no more!) Every witness in the basement
has a name (tell 'em!)
And they all play the very same game
She stood right there by the breaker box (I saw her!) Saying
time is running out on the church clocks (tick-tock) They call it
a confession but it looks like a threat
When the spotlight hits the floor
(tell the truth!) We don't talk about the old law anymore
(no more!) Every witness in the basement has a name (tell 'em!)
And they all play the very same game (shhh)
Just velvet brushing on concrete.
