[Verse 1]
It’s hidden far away, though someday I may tell
The tale of metal tangle when into your world I fell
Without you now I wander soaking secretly afraid
But in your grasp the fears don’t last, though some of them have stayed
[Chorus]
I wheeled around because I, I didn’t hear what you had said
And saw you dancing with Elihu, up on Leemor’s bed
And I was foggy, rather groggy, you helped me to my car
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
[Verse 2]
And on the market stands unfolding with all their willies and their wares
I shuffle by alert but numb to all the glances and the glares
And I think of you unheeding all the times I raise my cup
It’s now I know that you knew that I’d soon end up, end up
[Chorus]
I wheeled around because I, I didn’t hear what you had said
And saw you dancing with Elihu, up on Leemor’s bed
And I was foggy, rather groggy, you helped me to my car
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
[Bridge]
You tricked me like the others
And now I don’t belong
The simple smiles and good times seem all wrong
[Chorus]
I wheeled around because I, I didn’t hear what you had said
And saw you dancing with Elihu, up on Leemor’s bed
And I was foggy, rather groggy, you helped me to my car
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, a sample in a jar
Oh, a sample in a jar
Woah-oh, now, a sample in a jar
Oh, now!
[Instrumental Outro]
