Lyrics
i'm sitting on the toilet, with my sunglasses on, wondering what you are up to, this hotel's got bathroom telephones, but i don't want to interrupt you, you might be painting your nails, with your hot curlers on, each one a different color, or listening to that beach boys sailing song, sloop john b or another, ethylene, my ethylene, my love for you is just obscene, my deer you dress, my fish you clean, but you are nowhere to be seen, my ethylene, well you could bag your limit, with a bow and arrow, yeah you could skin a cougar in the dark, well i thought we were walking, down the straight and narrow, how'd we ever drift so far apart, i took my eighteen wheels, on this road to nowhere, and you disappeared right up in the hills, like smoke up a chimney, girl, i go there, yeah in my dreams i visit you still, now some men will drive, to the edges of nothing, so they can take a peak at the great abyss, some men avoid love, like it was a plague or something, so they can leave the seat down, when they piss, i miss that crocheted thing, you kept on the kleenex box, i miss my feet, on your cold linoleum floor, sippin hot coffee, after makin love till daybreak, well ethylene a fool would ask for more, my ethylene, my ethylene, my ethylene
