Barenaked Ladies - Shoe Box слова песни
A key in the door, a step on the floor,
A note on the table, and a meal in the micro
Note says "I`m in bed, please make sure that you`re fed
If you`re taking a shower, you can borrow my bathrobe
When I`m asleep I dream you move in next week"
I crumple the note and save it to put inside
[Chorus]
My shoe box
Shoe box of lies
Shoe box
Shoe box of lies
it`s under my bed, it`s never been read
it`s in with my school stuff and my mom never cleans there
From my first little fib, when I still wore a bib
To my latest attempt at pretending I`m someone
Who`s not seventeen, doesn`t know what you mean
When talk turns to single malts, or stilton, or
[Chorus]
Did somebody tell you
This is how it`s supposed to be?
Or did you just find it
And you don`t want any more from me?
[Chorus]
Was it something I said, or was it something you read
That`s making me think that I should never have come here
I can offer you lies, I can tell you good-bye,
I can tell you I`m sorry, But I can`t tell you the truth, dear
And what if I could - would it do any good?
You`ll still never get to see the contents of
[Chorus]
You`re so nineteen-ninety
And it`s nineteen-ninety-four
Leave this world behind me
`Cause you don`t want me anymore
