trapped in a box

no doubt

trapped in a box of tremendous size

it distorts my vision

it closes my eyes

attracts filthy flies and pollutes in the skies

it sucks up our lives and proliferates lies

trapped in a box

trapped in a box

four walls as sky

got a screen for a window about two feet wide

my mind rides and slides as my circuits are

fried

no room for thought

use the box as my guide

trapped in a box

ooh trapped in a box

watch the world as it flocks

to life's paradox

and we're all trapped in a box

oh trapped in a box i'm not alone

i know of others with a box as their home

light only enters from a crack or a hole

oh this is not enough for a human to grow

trapped in a box

ooh trapped in a box

watch the world as it flocks

to life's paradox

and we're all trapped in a box

always wanting a different view

instant gratification for you

reality gone with a single click

just hope that that switch won't stick

ah trapped in a box my life becomes void

and all of the thought for myself's now

destroyed

controlling my mind

what to eat

what to buy

subliminal rules: how to live

how to die

trapped in a box

ooh trapped in a box

watch the

the world as it flocks

to life's paradox

and we're all

we're trapped in a box

ooh trapped in a box

watch the world as it flocks

to life's paradox

we're all trapped in a box

ooh ooh ooh ooh

ooh ooh ooh ooh

ooh ooh ooh ooh

we're all trapped in a box
