Bare***** Ladies - Shoe Box Lyrics
Words by steven page & ed robertsonMusic by steven pageA key in the door, a step on the floorA note on the table, and a meal in the microNote says Im in bed, please make sure that youre fedIf youre taking a shower, you can borrow my bathrobeWhen Im asleep I dream you move in next weekI crumple the note and save it to put insideChorus:My shoe boxShoe box of liesShoe boxShoe box of liesIts under my bed, its never been readIts in with my school stuff and my mom never cleans thereFrom my first little fib, when I still wore a bibTo my latest attempt at pretending Im someoneWhos not seventeen, doesnt know what you meanWhen talk turns to single malts, or stilton, orChorusDid somebody tell youThis is how its supposed to be?Or did you just find itAnd you dont want any more from me?ChorusWas it something I said, or was it something you readThats making me think that I should never have come hereI can offer you lies, I can tell you good-bye.I can tell you Im sorry, but I cant tell you the truth, dearAnd what if I could -- would it do any good?Youll still never get to see the contents ofChorusYoure so nineteen-ninetyAnd its nineteen-ninety-fourLeave this world behind mecause you dont want me anymore.
