Lyrics for Boxes

Someday's I feel that I am bigger than most I don't have the ego, I'm not one to boast It is just I see the people As part of the whole It is just, I see the people in a big fish bowl We are boxes on boxes On boxes on boxes, haunted And we have things we don't need We are with and without in the road So damn tired of being a lady So damn bored of being a girl Then again If we look at it plainly I'd feel the same if I were a boy It is not the weather for the market today We just feel the pressure, the pressure of days We are sat upon a table where the food is hot We'll be talking for hours and we'll eat the whole lot We are boxes on boxes On boxes on boxes, haunted And we have things we don't need We are with and without in the road So damn tired of being a lady So damn bored of being a girl Then again If we look at it plainly I'd feel the same if I were a boy If I were a boy Life is but a dream I am just asleep Floating Tell me what you need I am on my knees Floating Beautifully free Life is good to me Floating Da-da-da-da-dum La-da-da-da-dum Floating
