Nobody Home - Pink Floyd

I'VE GOT A LITTLE BLACK BOOK
WITH MY POEMS IN.
GOT A BAG WITH A
TOOTHBRUSH AND A COMB IN.
WHEN IM A GOOD DOG, THEY SOMETIMES
THROW ME A BONE IN.
I GOT ELASTIC BANDS
KEEPIN' MY SHOES ON.
GOT THOSE SWOLLEN HAND BLUES.
I GOT THIRTEEN CHANNELS OF SHIT
ON THE T.V. TO CHOOSE FROM.
I'VE GOT ELECTRIC LIGHT.
AND I'VE GOT SECOND SIGHT.
I GOT AMAZING POWERS OF OBSERVATION.
AND THAT IS HOW I KNOW
WHEN I TRY TO GET THROUGH
ON THE TELEPHONE TO YOU
THERE'LL BE NOBODY HOME.

I'VE GOT THE OBLIGATORY HENDRIX PERM.
AND THE INEVITABLE PINHOLE BURNS
ALL DOWN THE FRONT OF MY FAVORITE SATIN SHIRT.
I'VE GOT NICOTINE STAINS ON MY FINGERS.
I'VE GOT A SILVER SPOON ON A CHAIN.
I'VE GOT A GRAND PIANO TO
PROP UP MY MORTAL REMAINS.

I'VE GOT WILD STARING EYES.
AND I'VE GOT A STRONG URGE TO FLY.
BUT I GOT NOWHERE TO FLY TO.
OOOOH, BABE WHEN I PICK UP THE PHONE
THERE'S STILL NOBODY HOME
I'VE GOT A PAIR OF GOHILLS BOOTS
AND I'VE GOT FADING ROOTS.
