4. As Bad as This (6:10)
Did you ever in your life before
Feel as bad as this?
Did you ever in good time think
My life had gone amiss?
Now I feel I've been unfair
'cause I catch you hanging there
Did you ever in your life before
Feel as bad as this?
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
My damnedest try to make it work
I knew it never would
Now there's nothin' wrong with you
And there's nothing you could ever do
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
The times were good
But over now
A pleasant memory
I'm sorry, there's another face
One that's close to me
You know 'bout what I learned
And there's no stone left unturned
The times were good
But over now
A pleasant memory. (sigh)
[Chorus]
Don't sit on the Plexiglas toilet
Said the momma to her son
Wipe the butt clean with the paper
Make it nice for everyone
So don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
[Verse 1]
A boy of 5 stands close to the toilet
Holds the lid up with one hand
Won't let go the lid for fear that
On his banana it will land
Don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
[Verse 2]
Boy grows up, he eats the enchilada
With the sauce that burns the heart
Family comes to visit family
Momma says don't belch and fart
And don't sit on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
[Chorus]
Don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet
Said the momma to her son
Wipe the butt clean with the paper
Make it nice for everyone
And don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
[Bridge]
Everybody sing!
[Chorus]
Don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet
Said the momma to her son
Wipe the butt clean with the paper
Make it nice for everyone
But don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
[Chorus]
Don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet
Said the momma to her son
Wipe the butt clean with the paper
Make it nice for everyone
But don't sit down on the Plexiglas toilet, yeah
Feel as bad as this?
Did you ever in good time think
My life had gone amiss?
Now I feel I've been unfair
'cause I catch you hanging there
Did you ever in your life before
Feel as bad as this?
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
My damnedest try to make it work
I knew it never would
Now there's nothin' wrong with you
And there's nothing you could ever do
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
The times were good
But over now
A pleasant memory
I'm sorry, there's another face
One that's close to me
You know 'bout what I learned
And there's no stone left unturned
The times were good
But over now
