When you left the door was
(slamming)
You paused in the doorway
As though a thought stole you away
I watched the world pull you away
Lock it
So I run into the hall
Lock it
Into the corridor
There's a door in the house
(slamming)
I hear the lift descending
I hear it hit the landing
See the hackles on the cat, standing
With my key I
(lock it)
With my key I
(lock it up)
With my key I
(lock it)
With my key I
(lock it up)
I am the concierge, chez-moi, honey
Won't letcha in for love or money
My home, my joy
I'm barred and bolted, and I
Won't letcha in
Get out of my house
No stranger's feet
Will enter me
I wash the panes
I clean the stains away
This house is as old as I am
This house knows all I have done
They come with their weather hanging around them
But can't knock my door down
With my key I
(lock it)
With my key I
(lock it)
This house is full of m-m-my mess
This house is full of m-m-mistakes
This house is full of m-m-madness
This house is full of, full of, full of fight
With my keeper I
(clean up)
With my keeper I
(clean it all up)
With my keeper I
(clean up)
With my keeper I
(clean it all up)
I am the concierge, chez-moi, honey
Won't letcha in for love or money
My home, my joy, I'm barred and bolted and I
Won't letcha in
Get out of my house
No stranger's feet
Will enter me
I wash the panes
I clean the stains away
Man: Woman, let me in
Let me bring in the memories
Woman, let me in
Let me bring in the Devil Dreams
Woman: I will not let you in
Don't you bring back the reveries
I turn into a bird
Carry further than the word is heard
Man: Woman, let me in
I turn into the wind
I blow you a cold kiss
Stronger than the song's hit
Woman: I will not let you in
I face towards the wind
I change into the mule
"Hee-haw"
Both: "Hee-haw"
"Hee-haw"...
