Pavement
Box Elder (Live 1992)
Wasn't the question you were asking
Wasn't the answer I gave
Made me feel like I was on train
Was a distant voice
Made me make the choice
That I had to get out of this town

'Cause I got a lot of things to do
A lot of places to go
Well I got a lot of good things coming my way
And I'm afraid to say that you're not one of them

Last time I was there
You were out on the couch
Pressed into a little electric tube
It was the way that you smiled
That made me know at once
That I had to get out of this town

'Cause I've decided to make a stand
I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking the next bus outta here
I'm gonna head to box elder, on my own
Box Elder, I'll go
Box Elder, I'll go
Box Elder, I'll go
