Door Lyrics - Van Der Graaf Generator

He's a blind man, crouching by the pavement 

only seeing with his third eye 

and clutching at the astral shadow 

of every passer-by 

He's a wise man, trumping all the answers 

she's a wild girl, trying to keep his feet on the floor 

in whispered physical litanies 

"Stay away from the door." 

"Oh, but we're all in this together," he says 

"three-legged race across the floor 

if only you'd loosen the handkerchief 

then I'd forget the door." 

"Ooh, that feels so much better," he says 

"now you forget everything that I've said before 

and sit there all by yourself 

while I walk through the door."
