Roches - Eggshell Lyrics
I live in an eggshellSometimes, if Im careful, I can make a pinpointThrough the shellAnd see the light.Im too big to fit through the hole, though,And thats my tough luck.Inside my eggshell I am secure,As long as I am careful not to move.But I have no control over what happens from the outside.I huddle there and worry that something I can not seeWill bump into meAnd when it does!You wouldnt believe what happens in an eggshell then!I get scrambled.My brains run like bean soup into my veins, bursting them.And my blood spatters up against the wallWorst of all.A little bit of me seeps through cracksAnd trickles away forever.People who live in eggshells have only one alternative:They can get hard boiled.
