Rox In The Box Lyrics - The King Is Dead - Decemberists

Get the rocks in the box 

Get the water right down to your socks 

This bulkhead's built of fallen brethren bones 

We all do what we can 

We endure our fellow man 

And we sing our songs to the headframes' creaks and moans 

And it's one two three 

On the wrong side of the lee 

What were you meant for? 

What were you meant for? 

And it's seven eight nine 

You get your shuffle back in line 

And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again 

And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again

And you won't make a dime 

On this gray Granite Mountain Mine 

Of dirt you're made and to dirt you will return 

So while we're living here 

Let's get this little one thing clear 

There's plenty of men to die; you don't jump your turn 

And it's one two three 

On the wrong side of the lee 

What were you meant for? 

What were you meant for? 

And it's seven eight nine 

You get your shuffle back in line 

And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again 

And if you ever make it to ten you won't make it again
