"Box In My Head" lyrics - BLUE OYSTER CULT

You say you wanna know me
Want me to open up
You'd like to see inside of me
Taste the contents of the cup
I'm gonna give you a chance
To open me up and see
Just step around behind me
Then take aside the key
Do you see the keyhole
In the back of my head?
Put the key in gently
Like a lover in bed

[Bridge:]
Turn the key, my darling
Open up that little door
See the silver box there
Wonder what it's got in store?

[Chorus:]
There's a box in my head and inside is a box
And that box has another box within
There's a box in my skull (box)
The skull is a box
And there's room for us both
To go in
A box in my head (yeah)
And inside is a box, another box within
There's a box in my skull (box)
The skull is a box
And there's room for us both
To go in

Reach into the cabinet
That people call a skull
Is the glass half empty?
Is the skull half full?
Watch out for the mousetrap
Careful of the hooks
Pull the box out carefully
Hold your breath and look
Is it a disappointment
To find another box?
Don't you give up easily
You'll have to pick the lock

[Bridge:]
Open up enigmas
You'll find mysteries
There you'll finally find me
When you reach eternity

[Chorus:]
'Cause there's a box in my head and inside is a box
And that box has another box within (yeah)
There's a box in my skull (box)
The skull is a box
And there's room for us both
To go in
A box in my head
And inside is a box (box), another box within (yeah)
There's a box in my skull, the skull is a box
And there's room for us both
To go in
