Lyrics - Sample in a Jar by Phish

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
Chorus
You tricked me like the others
And now
I don’t belong
The simple smiles and good times seem all wrong
