The Box and the Machine ©Rudy Simone 2013

You are the Box and the Machine Tryin to get away with me Well at most I view you cautiously
You are the Box and the Machine Are you trying to mess with me? Well I’m busy in my eccentricity

Long may you reign just don’t rain on my parade
I can’t keep up with the charade like all the others who’ve obeyed

You are the Box and the Machine tryin to get ahold of me Well at most I view you awkwardly
You are the Box and the Machine are you tryin to capture me? Well I’m busy tryin to keep my engine clean

The law of life is simple To thine own self be true
Not sell your soul To the bidder with the promise of a view

You are the Box and the Machine Are you tryin to capture me Well at most I view you awkwardly
You are the Box and the Machine Tryin to run away with me I’m too busy in my eccentricity
You are the Box and the Machine Are you tryin to capture me Well at most I view you cautiously
You are the Box and the Machine Tryin to get away with me Well at most I view you cautiously
