[Verse 1]
Venetian blinds are crackling
I like the noise, it's got texture
Hit it again when I'm mad
Close it again when I'm sad

[Verse 2]
With the door closed I'm a king
No questions, no answers
Don't like talking without reason
What's the use if you stop feeling?

[Verse 3]
All alone, I'm cynical to the T.V
Newsman's making passes to newslady
Camera stops, newsreel babies

[Refrain]
I like to close all the doors
Make it dark, make it cool
Come in and talk, whatever you like
I don't mind if it's something new
I said I like to close all the doors
Make it dark, make it cool
Come in and talk, whatever you like
I don't mind if it's something new
[Instrumental Interlude]

[Outro]
I like to close all the doors
Make it dark, make it cool
Come in and talk, whatever you like
I don't mind if it's something new
I said I like to close all the doors
Make it dark, make it cool
Come in and talk, whatever you like
I don't mind if it's something new
