"Squeeze Box" is the title of a song by The Who featuring Pete Townshend's trademark use of sexual innuendo. It first appeared on the album The Who By Numbers. The song's musical feel recalls the pop songs of the early British Invasion, and its upbeat character is in stark contrast to the despairing tone of the rest of that album. "Squeeze Box" also features the only banjo solo on any Who record to date.

Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when Daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
Well the kids don't eat
And the dog can't sleep
There's no escape from the music
In the whole damn street
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out
She's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes, squeeze me, come on and squeeze me
Come on and tease me like you do
I'm so in love with you
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
Edit: for XO who seemed to miss the POINT.
A squeeze box is an accordian.
/sigh
Flann? Halagren? GWEN? Bahl? Bou?? SOMEone help these kids out.
Haha! all ya all are old.
And what did I win for being right?
What do you WANT the squeezebox to be? ::)
As an aside, my sister is six to seven years older than you; age is a very abstract concept for me. :D
While a squeezebox is indeed, an accordion, there is a differentiation made by accordion players. The true "accordion" is the large-ish device with a full keyboard

while a squeezebox is actually the smaller accordion sans keyboard:

A small differentiation, I'm sure, as a lookup of "squeezebox" on the web will reveal pictures of both. But it's a subtlety that's becoming lost in modern language.
SQUEEZZEBOX!!

*flails*
Innuendo has always been a time honered tradition amongst songwriters.
The Squeezebox song is probably one of the better examples of lyrics that, dependant upon the state of mind of whom reads them .. can be highly innocent and highly naughty at the same time.
And that, of course, is the point ;)
The songs's NOT about a squeezebox?
I'm confused. :idiot2:
Oh it is.
*loves Ime*
Good.
Because I was hoping that we didn't give Izzra something to make fun about.
*blink*
[make fun about..?]
*brown eyes widen*
OH NO!
*drops face to hands*
*laughs helplessly*
Maybe.. maybe I can't make it to OR afterall....
*prays Rita doesn't see this thread too*
This one time... in Portland...
I recall Rita getting a pickle stashed secretly in her box by Lyrima.
ah...
Good times.
Was it a squeeze box?
<soft laugh>
*remembers details of said event*
< ;D>
I put a pickle in Rita's box. Yes I did. I bought the pickle and she wanted it. So she got it.
Yep.
I LOVE to eat pickles.
Yep.
One of those things I craved while I was pregnant...pickles...mmm...
Love to lick the salty juice right off of em...suck on em a while...then munch munch...
Just ask Dr Dirkk!
:angel:
*blink*
wow.
anyone else turned on by that?
Yes. Right up to the 'crunch and munch' part. Gotta say, that was a show stopper.
:D ;D :D ;D :D
CAn't breathe.
Too funny.
HA
Hey! Look what I necrobumped into!
There's some really choice Quote material here!
:bdg :bdg :bdg
What is funny is that THIS post is the alternate to the one with my name on it that comes up for google.
XO is listed as the author this thread.
I assure you, I did not want your pickle in my box. You stuck it in there against my will! :'(
*gasp!*
Rosemary doesn't want my pickle!
*sniffle*
/hm
Whose pickle DOES she want then? :angel:
I must have missed this the first time around, but Squeezebox might mean vagina.
/blinks
/blinks again
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
:2funny:
Thanks Beeker.
And yet again, someone is forcing their pickle on Rosemary. I think she brings it on herself, with that cheeky British accent.
