[Lyric] Shut In / Shut Out (Thud Bukit)

Trapped inside
From plague I hide

I must abide
Can't go outside

Facing the window I stand in my shame
Can't go to the movies or to the ball game
All the local bars have forgotten my name
We know we poor bastards have ourselves to blame!

Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and

The sky it mocks
Birds call me names
Free in their flocks
Ourselves to blame

Facing the window I stand in my shame
Can't go to the movies or to the ball game
All the local bars have forgotten my name
We know we poor bastards have ourselves to blame!

Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and

Boredom taunts me
I drain my cup

Down to my last can
Of seven-up

Facing the window i stand in my shame
Can't go to the movies or to the ball game
All the local bars have forgotten my name
We know we poor bastards have ourselves to blame!
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and
Shut in
Shut in and shut up and shut out and shut down and

The cable's on
I scan the menus

Nine thousand channels
And still
And nothing to watch
