memories lost in faded films of my life
and a friend that used to be something special to me
red wine and good times if you don't feel at all
there is no point in going on tonight

something's in the house something's on the stairs
war's in the air
the queer is out of order and me i'm on the ground
but that's no place to be

Jack Burroughs says "what you doing"
"oh me i'm going home"
"oh what a shame"
nothing has changed and nothing is new these days

Gary Numan, "Something's In The House", _T_u_b_e_w_a_y _A_r_m_y
(Beggars Banquet/ATCO 1978
