Richard Thompson - Uninhabited Man lyrics

Only a misdirected dart

At an unprotected heart

I'm sure it happens everyday

Just a passing interlude

Fresh face to change the mood

I'll find my feet again you say

What rock I had you rolled

What rock I had you rolled away

But I live as best I can

Meet the uninhabited man

Please read the sign and walk away

What an old, dry shell I am

The uninhabited man

I'll find my feet again you say

Rolled up they pull me down

Rolled up they pull me down someday

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

Who's been sitting in my chair?

Who's been licking in my bowl?

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

A romantic ruin am I

Funny how I catch the eye

The vacuum slowly sucks you in

I'm left no skill no art

To reach you heart to heart

You'll find no me beneath the skin

And if there's no me then there's no sin

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

And who's been sitting in my chair?

Who's been licking in my bowl?

Who's been sleeping in my bed?

(humming)
