TITLE: Singing in the Shower
Lyrics


Well there's no place to sing like the shower
I'm a real Pavarotti when I get lathered up
I boom out the low notes and glide through the middle
For the high parts I step on the old rubber duck
And I know that my audience loves me because
The spray hits the curtain with thunderous applause
There's only one flaw in my musical glee
I wish you could be there with me

And there's no place to sing like the trashcan
It's best when it's empty, still out at the curb
It's a little too messy before Wednesday's pickup
But on Thursday I stick my head in for reverb
It helps with a clothespin affixed to your nose
It's not Willy Nelson, but it comes awful close
There's only one flaw in my musical glee
I wish you could be there with me

And there's no place to sing like the washer
Hop up on the Maytag for a spin-cycle ride
It's especially good if you load the machine
With a big wad of Levi's stuck into one side
Just a little unbalanced unlike you and me
But you get a vibrato that's sheer ecstasy
There's only one flaw in my musical glee
I wish you could be there with me

{Refrain}
Ah I wish you could be there with me
It's not quite the same, doing it here
So come with me now if only in spirit
Imagine real hard, can you hear it?  Can you hear it?
I wish you could be there with me

Why don't you come over on Thursday?
We can hose out trashcan and carry it in
If your sister comes too we could unhook the Maytag
Shove it into the shower and set it on spin
Press "record" on your Sony and try not to sneeze
And I'll turn on the shower, no photographs please,
With the trashcan strung up to the curtain rod rings
I'll sit on the washer and sing

{Refrain}

And perhaps we could make a CD
I wish you could be there with me
