Dont Box Me In — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

You walk, Ill run

And follow right behind you

You call, Ill come

And I wont remember where I come from

Over there, at the end of the bar

This fish keeps swimmin in a jar

I feel a tug on the line

Which end will I be on this time?



Chorus:

Dont box me in

Dont box me in

Dont box me in

Dont box me in







One day Ill show them

Just what Im made of

Therell be a time

When I wont remember what I was afraid of

And Ill be swimmin in the sea

No banging on this glass for me

My eyes turned red when my life turned blue

So Im leaving everything, thats true

And Ill jump into

A brand new skin





Chorus:

And then you wont be able to box me in

Dont box me in

Dont box me in

Let go







Theres a few places round

That Ive never been

Theres an ocean out there

That I gotta swim

Theres a river that flows

Right past my door

I wonder

I wonder...

...what?





And if sometimes I cant seem to talk

Youll know this blackboard lacks a piece of chalk.





Chorus:

Dont box me in

I told you not toccdont box me in

Dont box me in

Dont box me in

Let go
