in a box

(Sing to the tune of Dick in a Box)

Hey Aaron,
We got some real im­por­tant pa­pers we need to find
But, uh, just sit down and listen

Boy you know we’ve been to­geth­er such a long long time
(Such a long time)
And now we’re ready to lay it on the line
Wow, you know it’s Sep­tem­ber, and our wal­lets are open wide
(Open wide)
Buyin’ a house to­geth­er is what’s been on my mind
(What’s on my mind)

But they need lot of pa­per­work, tons of im­por­tant docs
And I did­n’t file any of it – I threw that shit in a box
(It’s in a box)

I didn’t put it in a three-ring
Didn’t give much thought to anything
Every­thing is spread out wide and far
For all I know, some of it’s in my car

Now, please don’t wor­ry, we’ve paid all the bills
And I keep tellin’ my­self, “Dude, I got­ta get real …”
I should have just filed it from the start
But I’m a lazy girl

I threw that shit in a box
(I threw that shit in a box, hon)
I threw that shit in a box
Ooh, all that shit’s in some box, yeah

See I’m wise enough to know
When a form needs savin’, and I got every one
The only prob­lem is, I can’t seem to get the fil­ing done

To all the cou­ples out there who don’t care to impress
It’s easy to do, just fol­low these steps

1) find any old box
2) put all that shit in the box
3) then just look in that box
And that’s the way you do it

I threw that shit in a box
(I threw that shit in a box, hon)
I threw that shit in a box
Ooh, all that shit’s in some box, yeah

Tax re­turns, that shit’s in a box
Bank state­ments, that shit’s in a box
Pay stubs, that shit’s in a box
Every sin­gle doc­u­ment, that shit’s in a box

Proof of iden­ti­fi­ca­tion, all that shit’s in a box
Copies of our mar­riage li­cense, that shit’s in a box
Life in­sur­ance rid­ers, yeah that shit’s in a box

All our shit’s in a box
