3 Boxes - Fastbacks

Three boxes on my shelf

I know what’s in them all

They’re right there on my wall

Three boxes packed with care

What I put inside is supposed to stay in there

And there’s these boxes on my shelf, three

One of them you’ll never get to see

One is white and one is grey

The black one’s put away

The one you’ll never see

Sometimes when I’m alone

I’ll look inside to see what all I’ve put in there, there

And in these boxes that I have

I put inside all that I want to keep but not to share

I leave them home you’ll never see me take them anywhere

They’re not for everyone to see

You can look at all these things

But you can’t take them out

Once they’re there they’ll stay

I try hard to keep things out

Out of the box that’s black

Once something’s put in there

You’ll never get it back
