In an office two miles underground They can't tell night from day Secretaries typing errors of judgment In eternally full in-trays Phones ring in, get put on hold Well I'm just waiting for my nails to dry I was coming unstuck with nothing to show You stuck to him like felt on velcro But now he's gone solo He's taken all the amps, smashed the bedside lamp Taken all the light bulbs and the decorative wheel clamps You got a dark dark dark heart It's the heart of darkness Now you live in a filing cabinet You're another painful smiling face What you had doesn't even have the grace To be forgotten without a trace It lies, it cheats, it moans, it bleats Almost human in every detail In this stinking room, no-one goes to bed There's nothing to say that hasn't been said It's not enough to wish you were dead You had the last laugh but he didn't know why He jumped out the window, man, he thought he could fly You got a dark dark dark heart It's the heart of darkness Look at your body well you're lying still There's a smile across your face At the funeral yesterday Your corpse looked out of place You looked like death to the gathered throng But I knew you were laughing inside Something about your sense of humor Based on innuendo and rumor You were the ultimate consumer I took all your things, I threw away your wedding rings You had a big collection, baby, now they don't look so Fetching You got a dark dark dark heart It's the heart of darkness It's 4 am inside my mind But it's dusk out on the street The lamps are burning fireflies Who couldn't stand the heat I got cool bed linen, baby So the story should be complete But somewhere in the back of behind There's a light that makes me feel unkind Those stupid things I made you sign It ain't deus ex machine It's not some soul subpoena It's just when things mean nothing it makes you meaner You got a dark dark dark heart It's the heart of darkness
