"Man Behind The Glass" lyrics

Fill out form B section 17
There's a queue for the line for the chance to be seen
Just down the hall a seasick green
Take a number, take a seat

I'll read to you from the holy book
Mistakes were made you're on the hook
But cheer up son, the abattoirs been cleaned
It's clean

You can file a motion stake a claim
It's a drop ion the ocean of the state's disdain
You can twist and shout you can make a scene
But the only way out is to get through me

I only want what's best for you
My heart is pure my aim is true
So get down on your knees and remember not to breathe

I'm the man behind the glass
Man behind the glass
I can see but not be seen

Might I interest you in a length of rope
Or some other Kafkaesque pathetic trop
To bore us both to tears
I've been stuck here so many years

I really can't say why I stay
Maybe you could help me get away
I promise this time will be different
I promise I can change

I'm the man behind the glass
Don't wanna be
The man behind the glass
