Boy In The Box
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I go out
I can see the world from inside
Without a doubt
I can shake my head and scream and shout
[Because] I can't take it no more
I can't stand it no more
Who's laughin' at me?
Through the night
Was the giant sleeping?
The endless flight
O the mystery's for keeping
[Because] I can't take it no more
I can't stand it no more
Who's staring at me
I gotta say -
Chorus:
Pull up your sox
You're the boy in the box
What did the rebel say?
When the wolf cried "fox"
To the boy in the box
Will you come out to play
One, two (Spoken)
You can't get enough
Three, four
Open up the door
Six, five
Alive is the boy in the box
[I gotta say]
Chorus
And no-one talks
To the boy in the box
When the world cried "fox"
to the boy in the box
One, two
I can't get enough
Three, four
Open up the door
Six, five
Alive is the boy in the box
Like a boy in the box
The boy in the box
Like a boy in the box
