Box Elder (Live Brixton Academy, London, December 14, 1992)
Wasn't the question you were asking
Wasn't the answer I gave you
That made me feel like I was on a train
Was a distant voice
Made me make the choice
That I had to get the - out of this town
'Cause I got a lot of things to do
A lot of places to go
I got a lot of goodies 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
Was the way that you smiled
Made me know at once
That I had to get the - out of this town
'Cause I decided to take a stand
I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking my next bus outta here
I'm gonna head to Box Elder, M.O
Box Elder, M.O
Box Elder, M.O
Box Elder, M.O
