I just wanted toknow what boxing clever means in this songlyric:
And when she’s pressed she willundress,
And then she’s boxing clever,
Afriend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend whobleeds is better,
My friend confessed shepassed the test,
And we will neversever.
Thanks!

<!-==text==begin==-> Hi Migs!
I’m prettysure that they say boxing clever in this music.The whole lyric song is:PURE MORNING PLACEBO

A friend in need is a friendindeed,
A friend with weed is better,
Afriend with breasts and all the rest,
A friendwho’s dressed in leather,
A friend in need is afriend indeed,
A friend who’ll tease is better,
Our thoughts compressed,
Which makes usblessed,
And makes for stormy weather,
Afriend in need is a friend indeed,
My Japaneseis better,
And when she’s pressed she willundress,
And then she’s boxing clever,
Afriend in need is a friend indeed,
A friend whobleeds is better,
My friend confessed shepassed the test,
And we will neversever,
Day’s dawning, skins crawling [repeatthree more times]
Pure morning,[repeat thisthree more times]
A friend in need is a friendindeed,
A friend who’ll tease is better,
Ourthoughts compressed,
Which makes usblessed,
And makes for stormy weather,
Afriend in need is a friend indeed,
A friend whobleeds is better,
My friend confessed shepassed the test,
And we will neversever,
Day’s dawning, skins crawling [repeatthree more times]
Pure morning,[repeat thisthree more times]
A friend in need is a friendindeed,
My Japanese is better,
And whenshe’s pressed she will undress,
And then she’sboxing clever,
A friend in need is a friendindeed,
A friend with weed is better,
Afriend with breast and all the rest,
A friendwho’s dressed in leather

Hope it helps. :) Ireally want to understand that. :)

You know "box clever" is a way you cope with not comfortable situation :)

Boxing clever means the way someone dodges or avoids a tricky situation. Natakia was correct. It could come from the British court system where someone sits in the witness box and must speak the truth. It could also come from actual boxing, meaning fighting with fists, and how you have to be smart and avoid punches in order to win the fight.
