Who's Behind the Door by Zebra

From Wikipedia:
Zebra is the debut album by American hard rock band Zebra, released in 1983, eight years after they were founded. The album

features all original material, with the exception of "Slow Down," a Larry Williams tune best remembered in a 1964 cover version

by the Beatles. It is generally considered the band's strongest work, featuring minor hits "Who's Behind The Door?" and "Tell Me

What You Want."

Dream Theater covered "Take Your Fingers From My Hair" for the special edition of their 10th studio album, Black Clouds & Silver

Linings.


Lyrics:
We sailed away
We walked 2 thousand miles
and then we slipped away
We looked so hard
But couldn't seem to find just what
the world was for
Now we know
Just what the journey's for

Looking out to the stars
Think about what you are
What do they think of you
Animals in their zoo
They haven't got the time
Landing's not on their minds
How do they have the nerve
We're animals in preserve

They watch us all
They're only making sure that we
don't trip and fall
Now they look so hard
But they can't tell us why they're
here and just what for
Because they don't know
Who opened up the door

How can we find out more
Who owns the keyless door
Where does the circle end
Who are the unwatched men
Where do we go from here
Faith is a fading fear
Life is a waiting room
I hope they don't call me soon

How much more do you really
think you know than a flower
does about who's behind the door!

(This is the sound of thousands of snapping shrimp)

Yep, '83 in Dallas Reunion Arena. Warmed for Loverboy. This and Tell ME What You Want. The days of the "hair" bands and cheap gas!
