lyrics

Across your big purple bed
You ask me what is it I said
All I want to know is, shit, what is it you call it
You seemed a little shocked
Then you smile and say, the love box

Love box, love box, love box
Talks and talks and talks

Tickle me with your beard
You make me feel so weird
I’m putty in your hands
You take me to foreign sands
Better than a hand-rolled fag
Our love it aint no drag

Love box, love box, love box
Talks and talks and talks

I really dig your squeeze
Maybe better than perogies
Put your hand around my waist
No reason for us to go in haste
I love it when you say my name
(though I know) nothing ever stays the same…

Love box, love box, love box
Talks and talks and talks

I hope you don’t really mind
(I think) it’s time for us to unwind
We’ll do everything in every way
Like it’s the merry, merry, merry month of May
So don’t sneak around, you sly fox
Just crawl right in my love box

Love box, love box, love box
Talks and talks and talks
