Don't Box Me In lyrics
by Stan Ridgway



You walk, I'll runAnd follow right behind youYou call, I'll comeAnd I won't remember where I come fromOver there, at the end of the barThis fish keeps swimmin' in a jarI feel a tug on the lineWhich end will I be on this time? Chorus:Don't box me inDon't box me inDon't box me inDon't box me inOne day I'll show themJust what I'm made ofThere'll be a timeWhen I won't remember what I was afraid ofAnd I'll be swimmin' in the seaNo banging on this glass for meMy eyes turned red when my life turned blueSo I'm leaving everything, that's trueAnd I'll jump intoA brand new skinChorus:And then you won't be able to box me inDon't box me inDon't box me inLet goThere's a few places 'roundThat I've never beenThere's an ocean out thereThat I gotta swimThere's a river that flowsRight past my doorI wonderI wonder......what? And if sometimes I can't seem to talkYou'll know this blackboard lacks a piece of chalk.Chorus:Don't box me inI told you not to?c?cdon't box me inDon't box me inDon't box me inLet go
