The sound is getting closer The footsteps in the hall I can hear them talking I listen through the wall It sounds to me like someone is Heading for a fall Maybe I should follow The footsteps in the hall [chorus] Do what you want to You're too late I'm watching you Do what you want to It's far too late I'm on to you Now I hear the door close I step out in the hall I listen through the doorway I listen through the wall Maybe I could stop this or maybe I should call It sound to me like someone is Heading for a fall [repeat chorus] The elevator opens I run back to my room I hear a lot of voices They'll get him very soon I don't know when he's comin' I don't know what to do Now the room is silent We'll all be in the news [repeat chorus] Now here comes the victim He doesn't have a clue Then I hear the room scream "surprise" this night's for you
