Box in My Head lyrics

You say you wanna know me

Want me to open up

You'd like to see inside of me

Taste the contents of the cup

I'm gonna give you a chance

To open me up and see

Just step around behind me

Then take aside the key

Do you see the keyhole

In the back of my head?

Put the key in gently

Like a lover in bed

Turn the key, my darling

Open up that little door

See the silver box there

Wonder what it's got in store?

There's a box in my head and inside is a box

And that box has another box within

There's a box in my skull (box)

The skull is a box

And there's room for us both

To go in

A box in my head (yeah)

And inside is a box, another box within

There's a box in my skull (box)

The skull is a box

And there's room for us both

To go in

Reach into the cabinet

That people call a skull

Is the glass half empty?

Is the skull half full?

Watch out for the mousetrap

Careful of the hooks

Pull the box out carefully

Hold your breath and look

Is it a disappointment

To find another box?

Don't you give up easily

You'll have to pick the lock

Open up enigmas

You'll find mysteries

There you'll finally find me

When you reach eternity

'Cause there's a box in my head and inside is a box

And that box has another box within (yeah)

There's a box in my skull (box)

The skull is a box

And there's room for us both

To go in

A box in my head

And inside is a box (box), another box within (yeah)

There's a box in my skull, the skull is a box

And there's room for us both

To go in
