Disease

1992-08 – Bad Etiquette (cassette)

Harvey Dog (words), John Battaglia (music)


Lyrics

I have a disease. However, it is not a disease of the physical sense. It is a disease of the mind. Not that my mind is incapable of commonplace thought. My associates in the science department at the university are impressed with my teaching methods and my knowledge of the latest bullshit theories. Ha! If they only suspected the nature of my disease, my resignation would be imperative—a forced resignation. I would not give them the simplicity of my resignation. I would rather be fired and live the rest of my life obedient to my disease. My disease? Well, let me say that when my bladder needs relief, I do not go through the motions of searching for a washroom. Wherever I am, I relieve my bladder and leave a golden river in search of the setting sun.
