Lyrics:

I am hiding in the house

Someone's coming through the gate

When the doorbell sounds like an air-raid siren

I am lying in wait

People used to come around

They fish-eyed and they rubber-necked

Anyone who'd come to visit now

Is automatically a suspect

I creep up to the window

Me and my buzzing brain

And we watch two Jehovah's witnesses

Retreating down the lane

I'm not coming out yet

It's too cold

Leave me alone 'til I learn

How to spin straw into gold

I put on night-vision goggles

Work my way along the wall into the kitchen

As soon as the first snow fell this year

My finger's started itching

And I locked up the doors

And I sealed up all the windows

And friends came by sometimes for a while

I never let'em in though

And then they stopped, and then they stopped at last

And now it's just us three

These walls and the church of jesus christ

Of the latter-day saints and me

And I'm not coming out yet

It's too cold

Leave me alone 'til I learn

How to spin straw into gold
