People that sing when Their eyes are clear Are never really welcome here Can't you read the sign on the wall And If you speak of higher deeds Do it in a whisper please You'll awake, the sleepers Within So if there's something that you know Don't let it show, don't let it show If you feel high, when they are low Don't let it show, don't let it show Tonight Don't you know that the Walls have ears And even the deaf can sometimes hear The tremble, in a voice Like yours In an office block in a dusty room A file is being prepared on you And soon You'll hear boots At your door So if there's something that you know Don't let it show, don't let it show If you feel high, when they are low Don't let it show, don't let it show Tonight So steal away with me To a basement place I keep on loan Just in case It's cold and it's dirty But it's home And here where the fire's crackling And the pipes are always rattling We'll talk, till the sun comes up So if there's something that you know Don't let it show, don't let it show If you feel high, when they are low Don't let it show, don't let it show Tonight
