Defecation Of Character
5:37
Quite a while back there was a song. It was actually THE MOST played song on the radio. It was a really good song. Cool music, super catchy chorus. But then one day the singer was interviewed and he said the lyrics reflected a truly devastating romantic breakup. That soured the impression of the song. Only two quick verses? No real demonstration of pain? So it was decided to make a ridiculous song, one that would show more depth about the most absurd of subject matter. Its working title was ‘The Poopy Song.’ That wasn’t a sophisticated enough title, so we went highbrow literary with Defecation Of Character. And yes it’s about having to poop really badly! It’s a Rap/Metal hybrid that we think is quite funny!
Fun Fact: The Instrumental/Solo section in the middle was deliberately made to be slightly longer than the Instrumental/Solo section in the middle of Iron Maiden’s ‘Phantom Of The Opera’ in tribute to that fantastic Metal classic. And its length gives the impression that you’re ‘on the bowl’ for quite some time!
‘Defecation Of Character’ is played in Drop D Tuning.
Defecation Of Character Lyrics
You phony romantic your song is a joke
Such trivial words about how your heart is broke
You write so little about losing your dream
Fake words about fake love, to me they seem
How you pen empty thoughts of pain and loss
Money and fame your motivation of course
I’ve had it with you, so I’m here to spoil it
I’ll write deeper words about a trip to the toilet!
A gurgle in my stomach is what I fear
Don’t happen now, oh no not here!
To have to do this in a place so unclean
What could be on that toilet seat? You know what I mean!
Got to keep it back until I get home
Then I can release it as I sit on my throne
I fly through the door and rip down my pants
It almost comes out as I do my little dance!
Now that I’m seated, it comes out in a rush
Yesterday’s Mexican food, today a burning mush
No single wipe, I’ll be here for a while
Half a roll of paper, still I feel I must smile!
Instrumental Break
As I sit here I have time to read a bit
While turning pages, I squeeze out the last of it
Final wipe, zip up, I’m on my way
Doc says I’m good and regular, at least once a day
Turn on the faucet, use anti-bacterial soap
Good hygiene pays off I certainly hope
Open the door, turn off the light
I’m glad I made it, that was quite a fright
Next time I hear your song, I’ll try not to gag or spit
It’s so damn hard not to pitch a fit
Without using the word that rhymes with sit
I hope everyone knows, you’re full of it!
