“hee – haw! hee – haw! hee – haw!”
when you left , the door was
( slamming! )
you paused in the doorway
( slamming! )
as though a thought stole you away .
( slamming! )
i watch the world pull you away .
( slamming! )

so i run into the hall ,
( lock it! )
into the corridor .
( lock it! )
there’s a door in the house
( slamming ) .
i hear the lift descending .
( slamming ) .
i hear it hit the landing ,
( slamming ) .
see the hackles on the cat
( standing ) .

with my key i
( lock it ) .
with my key i
( lock it up ) .
with my key i
( lock it ) .
with my key i
( lock it up ) .

i Am the concierge chez – moi , honey .
won’t letcha in for love , nor money .
( let me in )
my home , my joy .
i’m barred and bolted and i
( won’t let you in ) .

get out of my house!
no stranger’s feet
will enter me .
( get out of my house! )
i wash the panes ,
( get out of my house! )
i clean the stains away .
( get out of my house! )

this house is as old as i Am .
( slamming )
this house knows all i have done .
( slamming )
they come with their weather hanging ’round them ,
( slamming )
but can’t knock my door down!
( slamming )

with my key i
( lock it ) .
with my key i
( lock it ) .

this house is full of m – m – my mess .
( slamming )
this house is full of m – m – mistakes .
( slamming )
this house is full of m – m – madness .
( slamming/madness )
this house is full of , full of , full of fight!
( slamming )

with my keeper i
( clean up ) .
with my keeper i
( clean it all up ) .
with my keeper i
( clean it up ) .
with my keeper i
( clean it all up ) .

i Am the concierge chez – moi , honey .

( it’s cold out here )
my home , my joy .
i’m barred and bolted and i

“woman let me in!
let me bring in the memories!
woman let me in!
let me bring in the devil dreams!”

i will not let you in!
don’t you bring back the reveries .
i turn into a bird ,
carry further than the word is heard .

“woman let me in!
i turn into the wind .
i blow you a cold kiss ,
stronger than the song’s hit . ”

i will not let you in .
i face towards the wind .
i change into the mule .
( let me in )
hee – haw!
hee – haw!
hee – haw!
hee – haw! hee – haw! hee – haw! hee – haw! hee – haw!

“hee – haw!
hee – haw!
hee – haw!

hee – haw!
hee – haw!
hee – haw!

hee – haw!
hee – haw!
hee – haw!”
