Hall Light Songtext
von Stephen Bishop

See Bob, he is a hardworking architect
He likes his cocaine on a Saturday night
He likes his cocaine every night
That′s Bob
That's Bob

See June, she works nine to five for husband Bob
He hides her bruises with her white Maybelline
She′s so afraid of him
Her life is sink or swim
That's June

There's so many people in this world
So many people in this world


See Alicia, she was young with a love for life
She had a father who could treat her unkind
She turned to Jesus when she should have tuned in to her mind

So many people in this world
So many people in this world

See Steve, he had a fat, creepy stepfather
Who kept his rifles in a room by the hall
Young Steve loved rock and roll
And Kim loved nothing at all

Some people can′t forgive the kid who grows up early
That kid was you my friend and that kid was me
Did you like to leave the hall light on?
Are you gonna leave the hall light on?
Forever

Forever
Forever


There′s so many people in this world
There's so many people in this world
