Lyrics

JOHN

No conversations, no distractions, no fear of you barging in here
Always keep a pen and paper near
No worries, no feeling in my legs… and no doubt
Just sit right down and let it all out

Inspiration strikes when I’m on the John
That’s where I found the words to this song
You say I’ve been in here for way too long
Oh, but honey, I’m only inspired when I’m on the John

Lavatory is my laboratory, my studio, my sanctuary
All my best works are born right here
Works of genius, telling, revealing, exposing every fear
They’ll bring a stoic man to tears

No disruptions, no interruptions, no fear of you barging in here
Do not disturb, keep my calendar clear
Need time alone, here on my throne
My morning meeting’s almost here
It'll probably be a while my dear

I know how it looks but I tell you again that I don’t really care
You won’t break my flow, no you wouldn’t dare
I wait in silence taking in the stale air
For my muse to whisper in my ear

Inspiration strikes when I’m on the John
