The Rubber Room

(Porter Wagoner)



In a buildin' tall with a stone wall around

There's a rubber room

When a man sees things and hears sounds

That's not there he's headed for the rubber room.



Illusions in a twisted mind to save from

Self-destruction hmm it's the rubber room

Where a man can run into the wall

Till his strenght makes him fall and lies still

And wait for help in the rubber room.



From his blurry vision of doom

A psycho in the rubber room

The man in the room right next to mine

Screams a woman's name hits the wall in vain

He's in the rubber room.



I hear footsteps poundin' on the floor

God I hope they don't stop at my door

Hmm, I'm in the rubber room

Now they've come to get me but they find

I'm a screamin' pretty words tryin' to make 'em rhyme

I'm n the rubber room.



Hmm, a psycho I'm in the rubber room

Boom boom

The rubber room, boom boom

The rubber room...
