BOX LUNCH

Written: NMSU, Las Cruces NM, fall 1965

 

One day in the late 70s Dwight pulled out his wallet and said, “Knees, I got something here you wrote.” It was the lyrics to a song that Knees had written in history class at NMSU in the fall of 1965. Knees had forgotten all about it. Luckily Dwight had kept it in his wallet all that time.

 

I got hairs in my teeth an blood in my mouth

It’s easy to tell I’ve been down south

Some like to screw an some dry hunch

But I’ll always take a juicy box lunch.

 

When a napkin is handy an the ketchup is flowin

You ask your baby if she might try blowin

She’s chewin your cookies

An you’re startin to munch

There ain’t nothin better than a juicy box lunch.

 

You’re down at the Y an she’s startin to function

There’s plenty of action

Where her legs make a junction

You got it licked cuz she’s startin to hunch

She’ll get her rocks from a juicy box lunch.

 

You keep on goin, it’s kicks just to chew

I doubt if she’ll kiss you after you’re through

You’re right in the groove an diggin it a bunch

Who wants to fuck

When you can eat a box lunch?
