Back in The Box — текст песни (David Byrne)

The sun shines on the living

The sun shines on the dead

The sun shines on you and me

Wherever we lay our heads



The sun shines on the evil

The sun shines on the good

It doesnt favour righteousness

Although you wish it would



Oh johnny, oh johnny

Are you still awake?

Oh johnny, oh johnny

Im terribly scared



And now I need an oasis

A place to hide from the day

Id like a little dark tiny room

Where the music plays



Maybe you just lost somebody

Maybe your whole world has changed

The sun dont really care about that

It shines on anyway



Oh johnny, oh johnny

Are you still awake?

Oh johnny, oh johnny

Im terribly scared



Im going back in the box

Back in the box

Back in the box again

Back in the box

Back in the box

Back in the box again



And now loves terrifying

But I cannot hide what I want

You cannot hear me or see me now

Because Ive gone back in the box



If I dont make no decisions

Then I wont make no mistakes

But through all those tiny holes

Well the lights still getting in



Im going back in the box

Back in the box

Back in the box again

Im going back in the box

Back in the box

Back in the box again ...
