suzanne vega - don't uncork what you can't contain lyrics

Loading...

a man finds a bottle on the bottom shelf
forgotten and covered in dust
the label is already half worn off
but open it up he must
as the corkscrew into the cork it goes
he hears the weird refrain:

do you what you like but never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain
do you what you like but never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

pandora had a pretty little box
and wisely she kept it hid
’til one day she couldn’t resist
playing around with the lid
as the demons flew and the shadows grew
this song went around her brain:

you can do what you like but never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain
you can do what you like but never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

as the demons flew and the shadows grew
this song went around her brain:
you can do what you like but never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

macklemore went to the thrift shop
looking to pop some tags
found an ancient oil lamp
hidden among the rags
and he picked it up, he rubbed it down
he thought he’d gone insane
cause a genie flew out singing never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain
genie flew out singing never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

he picked it up, he rubbed it down
thought he’d gone insane
genie flew out singing never uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

sometimes though you have to
let out what you’re keeping inside
if you keep it all in, your head will spin
and your mouth is all tongue tied
you’ve got to find the way to say what you say
and get it down on the page or the stage
it’s the cage for that tiger rage that you can’t contain

yes the page and the stage is the cage for that tiger rage
that you can’t contain, for real
the page and the stage is the cage
for that tiger rage, what it is that you feel

so do what you like but you’d better uncork
uncork what you can’t contain
you can do what you like but you’d better uncork
uncork what you can’t contain

cause the page and the stage is the cage
for that tiger rage that’ll cause you pain
do what you like but you’d better uncork
uncork what you can’t contain
