Lyrics
Official= LYRICS: so let me tell you how this all came to be I'm doin this here rap for your safety so all you kids dont mess up like me and be disowned by your family

so check it, this is how it all began I was chillin, eatin' some raisin bran I decided it was time to get a tan so I grabbed my scissors and then I ran

I forgot my house was two stories tall I missed the first step and began to fall What happened next I could not recall I was impaled by the scissors and thats not all

I thought I could get some help on the street I got run over by a f---ing Jeep the rest of this mess I will not repeat to help keep your lunch, I've been discrete

(box / the boxman / he's the boxman / he's the boxman / he's a box / he's a boxman / boxman / he's a box / man)

I woke up in a strange location some dirty bum had an explanation apparently he had no education he turned my body into an abomination

he said he found me on the road nearly dead it was necessary he fix my torso and my head he had no human parts so he used a box instead the news was so overwhelming that I fled

(box / the boxman / he's the boxman / he's the boxman / he's a box / he's a boxman / boxman / he's a box / man)

[yo, what's up homie, you know that boxman? yeah, he used to be a part of my clique yeah, well what about now? I don't know man, he can suck my --]

it's hard to live with a body of cardboard you'd think with this cute smile I'd be adored but since the accident I've always been ignored I trust one day that my hope will be restored

I'd like to meet a girl who likes me for me but of course no girl likes a guy made of tree I get so desparate that a cry and I plea I'd even take a fat girl to a tolerable degree

I guess it ain't that bad to be a box like me hey, at least I ain't Mary-Kate or Ashley if I ever want to travel across the sea I disguise myself as a package and fly for free

Well the moral of the story is airfare's expensive as hell so that's the end of my tale, so long, and farewell

(box / the boxman / he's the boxman / he's the boxman / he's a box / he's a boxman / boxman / he's a box / man) (x3) Boxman:

So let me tell you how this all came to be

I'm doin' this here rap for your safety

So all you kids, don't mess up like me

And be disowned by your family

So check it, this is how it all began

I was chillin', eatin' some Raisin Bran

I decided it was time to get a tan

So I grabbed my scissors and then I ran

I forgot my house was two stories tall

I missed the first step and began to fall

What happened next I could not recall

I was impaled by the scissors and that's not all

I thought I could get some help on the street

I got run over by a f*cking Jeep

The rest of this mess I will not repeat

To help keep your lunch, I've been discreet

Boxman:

I woke up in a strange location

Some dirty bum had an explanation

Apparently he had no education

He turned my body into an abomination

He said he found me on the road nearly dead

It was necessary he fix my torso and my head

He had no human parts, so he used a box instead

The news was so overwhelming that I fled

Boxman:

It's hard to live with a body of cardboard

You'd think with this cute smile I'd be adored

But since the accident I've always been ignored

I trust one day that my hope will be restored

I'd like to meet a girl who likes me for me

But, of course, no girl likes a guy made of tree

I get so desperate that a cry and I plead

I'd even take a fat girl to a tolerable degree

I guess it ain't that bad to be a box like me

Hey, at least I ain't Mary-Kate or Ashley

If I ever want to travel across the sea

I disguise myself as a package and fly for free.

Well, the moral of the story is airfare's expensive as hell.

''So that's the end of my tale. So long and farewell.''

"Boxman"


A music video for "Boxman" of the same name was released on June 21, 2006 on YouTube. The video depicts the events that happen over the course of the song: Boxman falls down the stairs, resulting in him getting impaled by scissors and ran over by multiple cars, but recieves help from a "dirty bum", who had to use a box during the resulting surgery. As a result, Boxman faces descrimination, but he eventually decides to make the most of it. The Gangstas make a brief appearance.

The music video was filmed by Ian and Anthony and starred Ian as the body actor for Boxman and Anthony as the voice of the character. Also included are numerous extras, including Anthony's girlfriend at the time.
