The Box

Holly McNarland

I had a box 
A box that could talk 
We looked inside and found 
A yellow ribbon 

So I took that box 
For a long, long walk 
And we had a talk 
And went to look for a friend 

And I had to eat you 
We went shopping 
The whole while talking 
We fell upon a little egg 
And the egg started talking 

Could this be true 
Have I really found you 
To stop this box from talking 
Well I must eat you 

And I had to eat you 
Have I really found you 

The egg is terrified 
But not to my surprise 
But I had to stop him 
This box from talking 

So I said goodbye 
And I see you both next time 
And I'll be along my way 
But the ribbons will always stay 

And I had to eat you 
Have I really found you
