Little Feat

Sample in a Jar

Little Feat


It's Hidden Far Away 
But Someday I May Tell
The Tale of Metal Tangle 
When Into Your World I Fell
Without You Now I Wander 
Soaking Secretly Afraid
'cause in Your Grasp the Fears Don't Last 
And Some of Them Have Stayed

I Wheeled Around Because 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

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

You Tricked Me Like the Others 
And Now I Don't Belong
The Simple Smiles and Good Times 
Seem All Wrong
