Shadow Boxer

(álbum: No Exit - 1979)

Ask me questions, get no answers
Give me nothing, take no chances
Show me books with empty pages
Wind your clocks and read your gauges

Shadow boxer
Shadow boxer

Tell me truths that have no meaning
Live in rooms that have no ceiling
Now your friends are all departed
So your secret's closely guarded

Don't go walking out late at night
Bolt your door, lock your windows tight
Be much safer staying out of sight

You're just a shadow boxer
Shadow boxer
Shadow boxer

Don't go walking out late at night
Bolt your door, lock your windows tight
Be much safer staying out of sight
You might go down in a state of fright
Watch out when you're all alone
Locked inside your safety zone
You might find that you have turned to stone

You ain't nothing but a shadow boxer
