IMAGES IN A BOX

Lyrics____________________________

Images in a Box
Flashing before me
I think somebody in that box
Wants to control me
Wants to suck me in

Part of me just wants to get it while I can
And leave the rest to ruin
They teach me well
And it's what everybody else is doin'

But I don't really want whatever it is
The current market value of a soul can bring
I don't want to live my life
Afraid to open up and sing

I live in a zombie population high on caffeine,
Harding, techno-ween and the latest polls
We walk the walk, we talk the talk, we swallow it whole
And if you should forget your purpose here
Not much of a chance, but if it happens that you stray
Just tune your TV in to CNN or watch OJ

Images in a Box
Flashing before me
I think somebody in that box
Wants to control me
Wants to suck me in

Down where the breeze is in from other places
If you want me, that's where I'll be...

Images in a Box
Flashing before me
I think somebody in that box
Wants to control me
Wants to suck me in

Every time I open up a magazine, it's the same thing
It's the message that cannot be missed
They say, walk this way, hey talk this way
Say, hey, you should look like her, you should buy this

Well I don't really need another smack in the brain
With your slick corporate ad campaign
I don't need an image

I imagine lots of stuff for free
And I don't really know whatever it is
The current market value of a soul is worth
But what I do know might just scare you
There's a corporate plan to rule the earth
