What are you up to, Sylvia? You've been sneaking downtown With your mother's drugs The dreams in the doll's house Have taken their toll What you need is a man with a little control The lines you keep quoting Just get more obscure You've even got me feeling insecure Don't you step in dark spaces Don't you go drifting into strange places Don't you step in dark spaces, dark spaces Let's talk it over, Sylvia Why did you steal all those hospital rugs? Doctor Freud has designs of real cruelty But those rugs cannot be your security I hear ambulance sirens just a few blocks away And I don't know what it is, you expect me to say Don't you step in dark spaces Don't you go drifting into strange places Don't you step in dark spaces, dark spaces
