No Doubt - Trapped in a Box
DTrapped in a Fbox of trDemendous sFize
DIt distorts my Fvision, it Dcloses my Feyes
GAttracts filthy Bbflies and poGllutes in the sBbkies
DIt sucks up our Flives and prDoliferates liFes
CTrapped in a BbboxF  
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
COoh trapped in a Gbox
  CWatch the world as it fGlocks
  CTo life's paraGdox
AAnd we're all trappeG#d in a box
Oh trapped in a box I'm not alone
I know of others with a box as their home
Light only enters from a crack or a hole
Oh this is not enough for a human to grow
Trapped in a box
Ooh trapped in a box
Watch the world as it flocks
To life's paradox
And we're all trapped in a box
GmAlways wanting a D/F#different view
Bb/FInstant gratificatioF#n for you
GmReality gone with a D/F#single click
Bb/FJust hope that that switcF#h won't stick
Ah trapped in a box my life becomes void
And all of the thought for myself's now
destroyed
Controlling my mind, what to eat, what to buy
Subliminal rules: how to live, how to die
Trapped in a box
Ooh trapped in a box
Watch the, the world as it flocks
To life's paradox
And we're all, we're trapped in a box
Ooh trapped in a box
Watch the world as it flocks
To life's paradox
We're all trapped in a box
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
We're all trapped in a box
