    Lyrics:

    It’s a national crisis
    Your dependence on vices
    I’m amazed at your resilience
    To laugh at the other drunken millions
    When the clothes you’ve worn to work today
    Are speckled with sick and beaujolais
    Hit with the hammer of hard home truths
    There’s only one thing that’s left to do

    Put your plans on the long finger
    Leave your wife promise the kids you’ll see them
    But they know that’s just feeble optimism
    You’d like to think you’d have kept in touch
    Some consideration for someone you love
    But you were never very into altruism

    Behind closed doors, decisions are made
    Behind closed doors

    Become disenchanted and get your own place
    Maudlin in private the tears fall with grace
    On damp sheets that smell of dual pack lenore
    And the cigarette ash from the night before
    A threadbare sofa out in the street
    The crumblin’ bus station couldn’t be more bleak
    An old man and his dog just sit and talk
    You have to wonder who’s taking who for a walk

    Put your plans on the long finger
    Leave your wife promise the kids you’ll see them
    But they know that’s just feeble optimism
    You’d like to think you’d have kept in touch
    Some consideration for someone you love
    But you were never very into altruism

    Behind closed doors, decisions are made
    Behind closed doors, you never know what goes on

    There’s no recourse to be taken here
    The ignored phone calls have made it clear
    They’re better off without you in every way
    You pass in the street but there’s nothing to say
    There comes a time when you have to decide
    Do you put your family before your pride
    You’d rather see them happy in their own way
    Than miserable with you for another day

    Behind closed doors, decisions are made
    Behind closed doors
    Behind closed doors, decisions are made
    Behind closed doors, you never know what goes on
