I know a guy who lives in a box |
|
He built it himself of cement and rocks |
|
And he'll never come out though |
|
I beg and plead |
|
He's got all that he wants if not all that he needs |
|
You see he couldn't take the world and what it's done to him |
|
He just had to escape, had to shut himself in |
|
Now his walls are his friends so he's never alone |
|
And he's never bothered in his cubic home |
|
Living in a box |
|
Every night and day |
|
Living in a box |
|
And I'm here to stay |
|
Living in a box |
|
There's no escape |
|
And though |
|
I tryI can never get away, |
|
HEY!Out in my box that is also my van |
|
Just another six weeks of one night stands |
|
And I can't get away, cause it's where that |
|
I goFrom the van to the club to our nightly hotel |
|
You see it takes me to places, even took me to you |
|
I got no choice, |
|
I gotta pay my dues |
|
Worth it or not, there's no escape from my cell |
|
One hour of fun for twenty three of |
|
HellLiving in a box for so long |
|
I got to find my way out to go on |
|
And what I got is no time for you |
|
I'm in my box without a thing to do |
|
Look at yourself, you're living the same |
|
Locked behind walls that your brother has made |
|
You were born in a box, you work in a box, you live in a box |
|
AND YOU'LL |
|
DIE IN A B |
|
OXSo much more that's outside your sphere |
|
But you walk on by never knowing how near |
|
So much more than the walls do show |
|
But if you're not very careful then you'll never know! |
