Back In The Box Lyrics - Hawkwind

Back in the box, shut in the dark 

Falling apart 

Digging the dirt 

Hiding the hurt 

Locked in a dream 

What does it mean? 

Shut in the box 

Too many locks 

Back in the box, back in the box 

Back in the box, back in the box 

Counting down 

Twisting round 

See behind your back 

Counting down 

Twisting round 

See behind your back 

...behind your back [ x 7 ] 

Locked in dreams 

What does it mean? 

Shut in a box 

There's too many locks 

Shut in a box 

There's too many locks 

Round and round 

Round and round and round 

I see you 

Hanging there 

Switch on the TV, look at the screen 

Money for a Rolls or a washing machine 

You pay your money and you pay your rent 

Every day it's always spent 

Maybe it starts to be the same 

You look out your window and it starts to rain 

Someone is saying it's time to die 

Send us some money and I'll tell you why 

I pay my stamps and I pay my tax 

I daren't stop working and that's a fact 

But all I see on the TV screen 

Is starving kids and war machines 

Is this what i've been taught in school? 

Is education the golden rule? 

the golden rule 

the golden rule... 

Back in the box 

Back in the box 

Back in the box 

Back in the box
