I spend too much time In these dirty, dusty rooms The places with the flickering signs And the dirty, dusty rooms Is it unfair to want fresh air? Is it such a crime? The window is locked, the bed is wrapped I feel like I'm doing time Dial nine for an outside line In a dirty, dusty room I found an old wedge of lime In a dirty, dusty room On the TV, hey it's Mr. T Man, his jewelry shines He's so cool, and he pities the fools Who waste their precious time Wasting precious time In a dirty, dusty room There's a loud and leaking fan In a dirty, dusty room And all of the rock 'n' roll bands In their dirty, dusty rooms Hey there Jim Where have you been? How did you make the time fly? Down at the gym Stretching my limbs, like a tree by the riverside Like a tree by the riverside Not a dirty, dusty room Dial eight for a really weird time In a dirty, dusty room I gave in, I went for a spin And lo what did I find A little tin full of tarantula skin And a house full of butterflies A house full of butterflies Not a dirty, dusty room Allons-y mes amis We're making it out alive Allons-y mes amis It's checkout time It's time to say goodbye To our dirty, dusty rooms We all spend too much time In these dirty, dusty rooms I spend too much time in this dirty, dusty rooms
