In  a  Cage  -  The  Black  Belles

In  this  room  that  I'm  in  you  gotta  sin  to  get  in,  uh  huh

You  gotta  staple  on  a  grin  &  let  them  push  in  the  pin

In  this  bed  where  I  lay  I  got  no  choice  to  stay,  uh  uh

And  no  right  words  to  say  despite  you  making  me  pray

I  can't  control  my  fate

I  am  in  a  cage

How  long  must  I  wait?

I  am  in  a  cage

And  once  you  leave  this  place

plan  your  lies  &  your  pace,  uh  huh

And  don't  you  ever  feel  sore,

what  happened  behind  that  door,  uh  uh

No,  we  are  in  this  together,

you  can  never  leave,  never

There  is  a  lock  on  the  gate,

I  run  but  it's  too  late,  uh  huh

I  can't  control  my  fate

I  am  in  a  cage

How  long  must  I  wait?

I  am  in  a  cage

Our  hope  is  spilt  on  the  floor,

you're  not  a  child  no  more

We  may  have  had  our  fun

but  now  there's  no  where  to  run,  uh  uh

Under  the  watchman's  eye

I  must  hide,  I  must  hide,  uh  huh

I've  given  up  all  I  can,

you  hold  it  in  your  hands,  uh  huh
