BBB - Ballad of Borrowed Bedsheets
Took a trip for a couple of hours
Hotel room, scared to take a shower
There’s no room for souvenirs
Packed too much to escape my fears
Like Thelma and Louise
Not allowed to sneeze
Here’s the real cliffhanger
Dust bunny is a strangler
Take along Charmin TP
Generic one-ply is killing me
Need my own soap and Kleenex
Special shampoo and Tampax
Need a pillow and fresh bed sheets
Black light detector so I can sleep
Plastic gloves for the telephone
Just leave the ice bucket alone
Can’t deal with spit and hairballs
Or ashtrays full of menthols
Need super bleach to kill shit streaks
Have to stab you if your shoes squeak
Keep a knife in the car
To attack you if you fart
Hotel rooms are full of bedwetters
Stay at home where things are better
This song was written for a friend who was a very adventurous person that hates to travel, an active germophobe. As the song hints at this certain fact, she must pack an entire drug store to survive a short trip.
The exaggerations were
proudly written by yours truly.
