Shitty

Words & Music: mostly Henry

Background: Henry tells the story here

This is one of my favorite StuPidwish songs of all time.

Lyrics:

I feel like shit
I feel like shitting
The toilet bowl is
Where I'll be sitting
The stuff inside me
Don't seem to be fitting
But the ceiling is the floor
But the ceiling is the floor.

Get outta my way
Clear my path
I'm headin' to the bathroom
But I ain't takin' no bath
Better not come with me
Or you'll smell my wrath
But the ceiling is the floor
But the ceiling is the floor.

Ate too much oatmeal
Breakfast was free
Should have shared with you
Instead of keepin' it all for me
I've had my fun
Now I'll pay my fee
But the ceiling is the floor
But the ceiling is the floor...

Bonus: The oatmeal/breakfast lyric (which also inspired a separate song) came from my experience at the 25 year anniversary of Woodstock (at the original site - Yasgur's Farm - not the big, commercialized one in Saugerties) when a bunch of fat, old hippies wearing Yarmulkes (that's really how you spell it, I looked it up) with dancing bears on them were riding around in the back of a pickup truck calling themselves Jews for Jerry and giving away free oatmeal while singing "Breakfast for Free." It was bizarre.
