Man in a room, can’t you see what you did
Pick yourself off the floor, it don’t suit you, don’t be blind

One lonely with four walls closing in
It’s a room without any door
You’ve been on your own since she told you to go
I’m telling you why and what for

You’re a man without a heart
Just a lonely man without a heart

Man can’t you see what you did to yourself
Thinking it was so big at the time
I could have told you but I wasn’t there
You shout her the wrong kind of line

Pick yourself off the floor
It don’t suit you to be in that frame of mind
Try to be more like a man with respect
Get on the right track, don’t be blind
