Trash Box
De-Phazz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmh, you're sticking to my finger
Mmh, you smell like used before
Mmh, your skin to me tastes rotten
Let me lick a little more

First time we walked the junkyard you said the magic words,
Love should be decorated with a little bit of dirt
More or less neglected from backbone to the heart,
It was more than I expected and I knew it from the start

That you'd fit into my trash box
Mmh, a perfect place to be




Although I know how much that cash sucks,
I want you there for free

Overall Meaning

The De-Phazz song "Trash Box" features unique and evocative lyrics that paint a picture of a love that is unconventional, dirty, and perhaps a little bit dangerous. The opening lines set the tone for the song, with the singer describing their lover as "sticking to my finger" and "smelling like used before." These phrases suggest that the lover is perhaps a bit grimy or worn down, but that the singer is still drawn to them. The line "your skin to me tastes rotten / let me lick a little more" is particularly striking, as it implies that the singer is savoring the unpleasant aspects of their lover's physicality.


As the song continues, it becomes clear that the relationship between the two partners is outside the norm. They "walked the junkyard" together and the singer is clearly enamored with their partner's unconventional approach to love. The line "love should be decorated with a little bit of dirt" is particularly telling, as it suggests that the singer is drawn to the rough, gritty aspects of their relationship. The chorus, with its repetition of the phrase "trash box," reinforces this idea that their love is something that is discarded or rejected by society at large. However, the singer still finds their lover to be a "perfect place to be."


Overall, "Trash Box" is a song that celebrates the messy, imperfect aspects of love. It suggests that true connection can exist in places that are neglected or forgotten, and that relationships that break the mold can still be powerful and meaningful.
