Black Venetian Blind

Howe Gelb

[Verse 1]
I can get right in on
So come to denial
Get away with the perfect crime
Or put myself on trial

[Chorus]
In my window
A black venetian blind, a black venetian blind
I'm aware there's a world out there
But I don't need to go blind

[Verse 2]
When fountains fall, where the big storms blow
Double the graveyard shift, cancel the late show
Among the patriarchs and sellers of time
There are those who build their arks and soldiers of slime

[Chorus]
There in their window
A black vеnetian blind, black venetian blind
I'm awarе there's a world out there
But I don't need to go blind

[Bridge]
They don't matter where
They've all gone away
I don't believe they won't come
Never be back anyway

[Verse 3]
There goes a man on a phone
Got the whole story right
But he can't believe his ears
So he turns out the light

[Chorus]
In his window
Black venetian blind, black venetian blind
I'm aware there's a world out there
I'm aware there's a world somewhere

[Outro]
This boy don't need to go blind
Nothing I need to mind
I don't need to go blind
Nice and dark in here
