Lyrics for Broken Box as interpreted by sweet_pea

Broken Box Lyrics
I've got wine & so do you
Mine came with a cork
I wish yours did too

Everyone just loves you so
Well hurray!
Now you know where to go

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where i came
In my head you're all brand new
I just didn't want what you gave
In my head you're all brand new
Go & find yourself another slave

There you are
Ooohh you're so in love, just like juliette
Well guess what?
That's one thing that you can for-fucking-get

Tears from the sky
In pools of pain
Well baby tonight, i'm gonna go & dance in the rain

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where i came
In my head you're all brand new
Take that broken pussy elsewhere
In my head you're all brand new
Save it baby, i don't care

This song has got to be one of the only rock songs that actually use "pussy" in their lyrics. read rock, not pop.

At Thursday's concert in Sydney Josh said "This is about a girl who fucks on the first date. It sounds great, but it really is not."

And then it sounded fantastic live.

Well if you people mean that Josh had sex with a woman on the first date (sounds cool) yet it really was bad sex...I read in an interview on Playboy with Josh Homme and he explained how he had had bad sex in the past and he had just gotten up for a drink or something...
HAHA funny shit!
Ace song!

call me selfish but I'm fairly sure my exboyfriend thinks of me when he hears this song.

im sorry, but this song is awesome. i love it so much! definitely one of my favorites from these guys - if you havent seen them live, do so! theyre amazing in concert. the line that gets me everytime is "take that broken pussy elsewhere". i sang that line in front of one of my friends and she suddenly had this look of shock on her face as she said: "jon!!" lol, gotta use that line sometime.

Some first date fucks you wish they were something more. Some first date fucks you imagine they will be until that split second after you come, and reality slaps you round the face. And some first date fucks you know before you even get them into bed that you'll hate the the second you shoot your load... but you still fuck them, don't you?

Is it me or has every frontman for every band that road the bandwagon of the grunge fucked Courtney Love at some point? I can't believe anyone would write a song about that bitch anymore. If this song is about her I sincerely want to rethink about listening to this band.

I am almost completely positive that the first lines of this song on the album version are "I've got mine and so do you; mine came with a cord, I wish yours did too".
As in a spinal cord - she was too spineless to call off their relationship before she started another one i.e. cheated. "Tell your new boy where I came" seems to imply some bitterness over being cheated on and backs up this lyric.

Anyway he definitely does not say 'Wine' on the album version, it's distinctly 'Mine'.

yeah, i've always thought he was saying "mine" instead of "wine" and "cord" instead of "cork."
