The Statler Brothers sang it, but I think it has been covered, too.

But I am stuck in here all paralyzed
For months I got myself in ruts
Too much time spent in mirrors framed in yellow walls

And the light from a streetlamp paints a pattern on my wall
Like the pieces of a puzzle
Or a child's uneven scrawl.

From some ancient fight
About the size of a fist
Or something thrown that had missed

There was a bee-i-ee-I-ee
Sat on a wall-I-all-I-all
And there he sat-I-at-I-at
And that was all-I-all-I-all

A fortress deep and mighty

When the walls come crumbling, crumbling
When the walls come tumbling, tumbling down

And the walls came tumbling down

To love and get away before the walls have arisen
You've got to be free
But to go on attempting to break into the prison
You'd have to be me

Even now I'm at your window.

Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
You can waste your time on the other rides
This is the nearest to being alive
Let me take my chances on the wall of death

-- Richard Thompson
