The Bathroom Song

This is completely out of character for me. I, unlike many boys, very much dislike talking about bodily functions. Even so, I like to write lyrics and play with words. The bathroom song was inspired by BBC couples who just hated to be apart for any amount of time. It's about a hypothetical couple that breaks up because one of them has to go...to the bathroom.

I want to be with you
Morning, noon, and night
I never want to leave your sight
I want to be with you
Any kind of weather
Rain, sleet, or snow
I never want to go

But(t)
Sometimes I have to
Sometimes it must be done
It’s not what I want
And it’s not very fun

I want to be with you
I’ll do all that I can
But the can sometimes calls
And the enemy falls

I can’t stand being away
So I sit for the long one’s
I’d walk a million miles for you
But now I’ve got the runs

I can’t stand being apart
But it starts with a fart
And then I know
Gotta go, gotta go

I don’t understand your letter
The Dear John that broke my heart
If only you knew it was dear John
That tore us all apart

I’ll beg you on my knees
After I use the facilities
Please don’t go
While I go
Please don’t go
While I go

well, I wrote this about 5 years ago...so, at best, I had way too much time on my hands back then

that being said, use of the phrase 'you have way too much time on your hands' is a pet peave of mine.
