Lyrics:

Two chemical lovers
Met under moonlight
They ain’t hooked on each other
But pretend for the night
After all it’s just nature
Whatever feels right
Then here comes little ole me

I hit the ground running
On the heels of my mother
The young buck with nothing
Who’s old man’s a goner
I grew like a willow
By the end of that summer
I’d been set free

What a wonderful world
What a high of all highs
Drunk on the pure ecstasy of my youth
Well damn would you look at that pretty sunrise

Hell I made it this far
With the hand I’ve been dealt
Might as well go make the best of my years
Might as well go make a name for myself
Oooh
___

Oh it’s been a long December but the wind says winter is rolling down the road
Patiently I’ve been waiting in line, I’m thinking it’s time I get to holding down them rows
The mirror in the water says Heaven knows I owe that favor to the
Architect making me a grown ass baker’s dozen man
With a plan to put a stamp on the land of just goin’ with the flow
Somebody say

How you gonna live (woo)
You grow up in a hurry even when you don’t even try
Whatcha gonna give (yeah)
You’re rolling in the dirt next thing you know there’s years gone by
To the world to the world to the world
As far as I’m concerned by God you only get one life
Damn it feels good to be alive
Damn it feels good to be alive
___

The man in the box
His legend’s in the air
I’ve had my reservations
But damn if he ain’t there
He blends in with the background
With a red tail kinda stare
I’ll never know how but
He’s everywhere

Yeah the man in the box
He’s up before the sun
He looks out of the window at everything he’s done
Groceries for the hungry shelter for the young
Still my premonition tells me I should run

Honestly
What do you what do you want from me
I’m just a guy with a strong determination
To cruise and keep a chasing these tails until
The new crew in town takes my spot
Should I listen
To my county line intuition
Will I be the hero
Or killed on the scene
Tell me this
Does the king of the country keep his
Crown if he locks
(The man in the)
(The man in the)
(The man in the)

The man in the box
I wonder if he knows
When the sun’s down and moon’s out
And he’s slippin’ through the rows
With smoke thick from his oak stick like a firefly on his nose
That I can put an end to him
But choose to let him go

Hey man in the box
I’ve wondered all these years
What keeps your on your rusty throne
Is it passion is it fear
Does divine or malign define what’s in between those ears
‘Cause every time I hear thunder someone disappears

Honestly
What do you what do you want from me
I’m just a guy with a strong determination
To cruise and keep a chasing these tails until
The new crew in town takes my spot
Should I listen
To my county line intuition
Will I be the hero
Or killed on the scene
Tell me this
Does the king of the country keep his
Crown if he locks
The man in the
The man in the
The man in the box
The man in the

The man in the box
He’s gotta know I’m starving
I’m run down but this blood hound smells pretty girls at the party
Not for you little number two we’re really doing this aren’t we
Honestly fuck it I’m fucking you up you’re a bitch and my names on the marquis

Man in the box
What the hell have you done
Last thing I heard was
Now there’s blood in my lungs
Is this really how I die
Do you do this for fun
Make me a statue
Like father like son close my eyes
Now I see
After all this time
Maybe the man in the box is me

I give thanks to the Lord
That gave its life today
I respect it in death as I respected in in life
May every part that be used
Be put to good use
And may its sacrifice feed the ones I love
Amen
