Lyrics[edit | edit source]
You may think I cover up much of your view
There's lots of things behind you, if you could only see a few
But imagine the surprise when I tell you you can't see
But you wanna anyway
'Cause there's a mirror behind my back
In the back, behind my back
There is one behind my back, and it's just my shape
And you can't see the view, maybe there's an ape
And you will see a scene, and it's got you in it
And you block your own view, behind you, wait a minute
Then, you may think you cover up much of your view
There's lots of things behind you if you could only see a few
But imagine the surprise when I tell you, you can't see
But you wanna anyway
So cover all your mirrors with curtains without rods
And roll up all your curtains into rugs seldom seen
And now that you are done doing all of that
Save it for the rust and dust and rust and dust and bugs
