Barenaked Ladies (BNL) - Box Set lyrics

Your rating:

I never thought that you would love me the way that you do
I never thought that you would love me half as much as I do
You say you wanna know everything about me, well, here you go
You say you couldn't live your life without me, I don't know
But if you want it, girl, you've got it
It's all right here, in my box set

I never thought that words like products could ever leave my lips
But something happened to me somewhere that made me lose my grip
Maybe it's a lack of inspiration that makes me stoop
Or maybe it's a lack of remuneration, I can't recoup
But if you want it folks, you got it
It's all right here in my box set

Disc One
It's where we've begun
It's all of greatest hits
And if you are a fan then you know that you've already got 'em

Disc Two
It was all brand new
An album's worth of songs
But we had to leave the whole disc blank 'cause some other label bought 'em

Disc Three
This is really me 
In a grade school play
I had about a hundred thousand lines but of course I forgot 'em

I never thought there'd be days like this, there was always someone at my door
I never thought I would ever miss and the crowd would always holler for more
But now it seems all that people want is what I used to be
And every time I try to do something new
All they want is 1973

I never thought I'd be regretful of all my past success
But some stupid number one hit single has go me in this mess
You can put it on every compilation, that's alright
You can hear it on the oldies radio station every night
And if you want it again, you got it-
It's right here in my box set

Disc Four
Never released before
And you can tell why
It's just some demos I recorded in my basement

Disc Five
I was barely alive
I was coughing up a lung
So they had to use a special computer as my replacement

Disc Six
A dance remix
So I can catch the latest trend
And it'll make you scratch your head and wonder where my taste went

So now my fans are crying sellout, they say that I've lost my touch
They say I should just get the hell out before I do too much
Hear my songs in an ad for a bathroom cleanser, they say it's greed
And now I'm wondering where my friends are in this time of need
But if you change your mind and buy it
I hope you enjoy my new box
I hope you enjoy my new box
I hope you enjoy my new box set
