Mean Steel Man Halfway Grinning Gave Me A Box Didn't Know What's In It Smooth And Shiny Big And Tiny Didn't Want To Look Inside Why? Cos I Was Scared Of What Was Gonna Be There Maybe Gonna See My Soul Too Bare And If So I Wanted To Go Cos That's Something I'd Rather Not Know Mean Steel Man Made Me Furious But I Couldn't Help Being Curious He Knew I Couldn't Hold Back It Was My Path He Laughed Chorus: You Bought The Big Black Box You Threw Your Soul On The Rocks You Bought The Big Black Box You Bought The Big Black, Big Black Box Something Changed I Rearranged Like This Whole Thing Was Preordained My Heart Shattered And Animal Matter Served To Me My Mind On A Platter I Lost It All Inside The Box Sittin There Starin At The Clock Watchin Life From The Beginning All Its Worth All Its Sinning As Its Hopeless People Fell I Turned My Back What The Hell Like All My Ancestors Through Time In Self And Ignorance Our Common Crime Chorus Now I Spend My Nights Trying To Forget The Things I Saw I Regret Goin Forward Never Tell Let The Others Fend For Themselves Demons' Eyes Pass Me By Piercin Through On Either Side I'll Let It Slide Let It Die Lift My Sights Up To The Sky The Pain Has Fallen To Another Who Has Yet To Discover A Big Black Box Sittin On A Shelf A Mean Steel Man Inside Himself Chorus
