| Album: No Doubt (1992), The Singles 1992-2003 (2003); Song: Trapped in a Box Written by: E. Stefani, T. Dumont, G. Stefani, T. Kanal 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 Trapped in a box Watch the world as it flocks To life’s paradox We’re all trapped in a box Trapped in a box I’m not alone I know of others with a box as their home Light only enters from a crack in a hole This is not enough for a human to grow Trapped in a box Trapped in a box Watch the world as it flocks To life’s paradox We’re all trapped in a box Always wanting a different view Instant gratification for you Reality gone with a single click I just hope that switch don’t stick Trapped in a box my life becomes void All I thought for myself is now destroying Controlling my mind, what to eat, what to buy Subliminal rules: how to live, how to die Trapped in a box Trapped in a box Watch the world as it flocks To life’s paradox We’re all trapped in a box |
