Seen a lot of walls, seen a lot of halls
Got a lot of calls, late at night
Seen a lot of doors, seen a lot of floors
Done a lot of chores, late at night

So don’t come in here walkin’
So innocent and talkin’
Tryin’ to make conversation
Cause I know and you know
That I know what you’re here for

Don’t tell me ’bout your father
Your sister or your mother
Your great big brother
Not tonight

Don’t want to hear about your hang ups
Don’t want know your favorite movies
Don’t want to hear about other rock bands
Not tonight

So don’t come in here walkin’
So innocent and talkin’
Tryin’ to make conversation
‘Cause you know and I know
That I know what you’re here for

Seen a lot of floors
Seen a lot of doors
Done a lot of chores
Late at night
