Am I living in a cardboard box?

Are you living in a box?

Follow-up was "Gatecrashing," I believe; "Room in your heart" was the follow-up to that.

Probably the best song about homelessness to hit the top 40.

No, you live in a little pink house.

I think you're forgetting "Another Day in Paradise".

Bobby Womack did a cover version which is rather spellbinding in not quite the correct way.

I can identify with that.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Thursday, 1 September 2005 08:43 (twenty years ago)

And I always thought it was, "I'm-a livin' in a box."

(x-post: It's a beautiful and scary piece)

― NickB (NickB), Thursday, 1 September 2005 08:46 (twenty years ago)

Help me I'm trapped like a fool I'm in a cage I can't get out.

"living in a box" is a great song to have sex to, especially if you only do it for procreation.

― ratbite, Thursday, 1 September 2005 19:16 (twenty years ago)

This song is so awesome.

When Marsha Bronson opened the door, he helped her carry the package in. He had his yellow and his green slips of paper signed and left with a fifteen cent tip that Marsha had gotten out of her mother's small beige pocketbook in the den.

What do you think it is? Sheila asked. Marsha stood with her arms folded behind her back. She stared at the brown cardboard carton that sat in the middle of the living room. I dunno.

Inside the package, Waldo quivered with excitement as he listened to the muffled voices. Sheila ran her fingernail over the masking tape that ran down the center of the carton. Why don't you look at the return address and see who it's from? Waldo felt his heart beating. He could feel the vibrating footsteps. It would be soon.

Marsha walked around the carton and read the ink-scratched label. Ah, god, it's from Waldo! That schmuck! said Sheila.

That Corey Hart song scared the shit outta me in 5th grade. Does anyone else remember it? The chorus was something like: "The wolf cried fox/to the boy in the box"
