==Lyrics==
Try and be kind to Mr. Humphries in room 5 
He gets grumpy trying to keep hope alive 
And though the well is dried up 
He won’t give or shut up 
It’s still hoping

He spent his life on the television 
He even had a catch phrase of his own 
Made a great entrance on the stage 
A free man walking from the cage 
Millions loved him 
Hoping

His advice to the young 
Always leave ’em wanting more 
You can’t calm the savage beast 
But you can make him less of a bore 
The heart it don’t need 
Brave words or deeds 
It just keeps hoping

Keep it light, keep it bright 
You’re the thing they forget 
And in the end no one’s a friend 
And your fortune becomes a debt 
ADVERTISING

So be kind to Mr. Humphries 
Though you think his role is small 
A smile that breaks the darkness 
Never has to beg, never has to crawl 
Every breath is a prayer 
It don’t cave in or scare 
It’s hoping

You won’t find the sun 
If the dead light your way 
Distract ’em, keep ’em laughing 
Cause you’ll never have enough to pay
