lyrics

This shower is too small for fucking
This shower is too small to get laid
I wish it were bigger, or that we were thinner
But then we'd get sucked down the drain

This table is too tall for fucking
Too high off the ground to get laid
I'd climb to the top of it, but fearing the drop of it
Deflates the will, what a shame

We could just play Monopoly
I could just pick your brain
We could just play some old school video games
Watch the news or the rain

There's a hill down the street ripe for climbing
Adventures to be sought and claimed
But you complain of weather
And lie on the feather bed
Legs spread, eyes red, lips aflame

Nothing can tame the monster
Nothing will satiate
If I were to lay here, she would just say
"Dear let's do it again and again"

Well this bed is too feathered for fucking
I must object and complain
I don't approve of plucking the feathers from ducklings
Or swanlings or goslings
Or any leaf rustling beast
On it's way to the grave

So baby I'll be on my way now
Yes, I know it is strange
But you'll be alright with yourself
A nightlight and your imaginary, unwary, less hairy friend
Bill, Chuck, Dick, George or James
