"Congratulations, You have just discovered the secret message.
|
Please send your answer to 'Old Pink',
|
Care of the funny farm, Chalfont..."
|
(interrupted)
|
"Roger, Caroline's on the phone..."
|
|
What shall we use
|
To fill the empty spaces
|
Where we used to talk?
|
How shall I fill
|
The final places?
|
How should I complete the wall...
|
|
(Film/ Live Version)

|
Empty Spaces
|
What shall we use to fill the empty spaces
|
Where waves of hunger roar?
|
Shall we set out across this sea of faces
|
In search of more and more applause?
|
What Shall we do Now?
|
Shall we buy a new guitar?
|
Shall we drive a more powerful car?
|
Shall we work straight through the night?
|
Shall we get into fights?
|
Leave the lights on?
|
Drop bombs?
|
Do tours of the east?
|
Contract disease?
|
Bury bones?
|
Break up homes?
|
Send flowers by phone?
|
Take to drink?
|
Go to shrinks?
|
Give up meat?
|
Rarely sleep?
|
Keep people as pets?
|
Train dogs?
|
Raise rats?
|
Fill the attic with cash?
|
Bury treasure?
|
Store up leisure?
|
But never relax at all
|
With our backs to the wall
|
Backs to the Wall
|
