The Water Is Piping Hot

It beats upon my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...

Standing in the shower, thinking

A little more honing/editing and you'd have a lovely haiku.

Wish I could take credit. Alas, they are lyrics to a Jane's Addiction song. (Beyond these, the remainder of the song is lyrically very fitting for my life at the moment, too.)

Woo hoo--just got my new 'Ebay Center'--Brian gave us a desk/shelving unit, and he and I moved it in just a bit ago.

Now to get it all set up for business...

Juanes Addiction, eh? I probably even know the song then. I'm terrible at recognizing printed lyrics to songs.

Good luck with the center set up. Me and the Mrs need to get some advanced Ebay instruction from you sometime.

'Standing in the Shower Thinking' is off of Nothing's Shocking.

RE: Ebay. I will be happy to instruct you to the best of my ability.
Just say the word, boyo.

Standing in the shower thinking
About what makes a man
An outlaw or a leader
I'm thinking about power...
The ways a man could use it
Or be destroyed by it
The water hits my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...

Standing
In the shower
Thinking...

Standing in the shower thinking
About a man I know don't like me
He don't like the place I'm headed
Same place he's headed...
I know he'd beat me to it
If he could but he won't do it
But he would man
If he could...
And the water is piping hot..
The water is piping hot
It beats upon my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...

Standing
In the shower
Thinking...

Standing in the shower thinking
Is my woman afraid of me?
She's seen how far I've twisted
It's just cause I can trust her
And ever since we met
She understood so she let
Me twist her good...
I twist her good...
And the water is piping hot
The water is piping hot
It beats upon my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...

Standing
In the shower
Thinking...

And here I thought you were revealing only that you pee in the shower.

Who DOESN'T pee in the shower sometimes?
