Stan Ridgway - Don't Box Me In lyrics

You walk, i'll run And follow right behind you You call, i'll come And i won't 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: Don't box me in Don't box me in Don't box me in Don't box me in One day i'll show them Just what i'm made of There'll be a time When i won't remember what i was afraid of And i'll be swimmin' in the sea No banging on this gla** for me My eyes turned red when my life turned blue So i'm leaving everything, that's true And i'll jump into A brand new skin Chorus: And then you won't be able to box me in Don't box me in Don't box me in Let go There's a few places 'round That i've never been There's an ocean out there That i gotta swim There's a river that flows Right past my door I wonder I wonder... ...what? And if sometimes i can't seem to talk You'll know this blackboard lacks a piece of chalk. Chorus: Don't box me in I told you not to Don't box me in Don't box me in Let go
