The (A5)man in the room right next to mine screams a woman's name, hits the (G)wall in vain
He's in the (A5)rubber room

I hear (A5)footsteps poundin' on the floor, God, I hope they don't stop at my door
(G)Hmm, I'm in the (A5)rubber room

(A5)Now they've come to get me but they find, I'm a screamin' pretty words tryin' to make 'em (G)rhyme

(A5)Doon doon doon, toom, boon, toom toom, boom boom boom, the rubber room, boom boom
The rubber room, hmm, boom, toon, hmm -----
