shoebox - barenaked ladies lyrics

[verse 1]
a key in the door, a step on the floor
a note on the table, and a meal in the micro
note says “i’m in bed, please make sure that you’re fed
if you’re taking a shower, you can borrow my bathrobe
when i’m asleep i dream you move in next week”
i crumple the note and save it to put inside

[chorus]
my shoe box
shoe box of lies
shoe box
shoe box of lies

[verse 2]
it’s under my bed, it’s never been read
it’s in with my school stuff and my mom never cleans there
from my first little fib, when i still wore a bib
to my latest attempt at pretending i’m someone
who’s not seventeen, doesn’t know what you mean
when talk turns to single malts, or stilton, or

[chorus]

[verse 3]
did somebody tell you
this is how it’s supposed to be?
or did you just find it
and you don’t want any more from me?

[chorus]

[verse 4]
was it something i said, or was it something you read
that’s making me think that i should never have come here
i can offer you lies, i can tell you good-bye
i can tell you i’m sorry, but i can’t tell you the truth, dear
and what if i could – would it do any good?
you’ll still never get to see the contents of

[chorus]

[verse 5]
you’re so nineteen-ninety
and it’s nineteen-ninety-four
leave this world behind me
cause you don’t want me anymore
