Story Behind the Song
I needed to do laundry,... and most of the songwriting corresponds to the verses....
Yeah,... I'm an odd one :P
Lyrics
Washing Machine
===============
'sittin on the Washing Machine
with a guitar, in a towel.
The motor's goin' *thump* *thump*
The agitator's goin' *thump* *thump*
The *thump* *thump*'s shakin' my legs,
Today has been such a daze...........
'sittin on the machine,
with a notepad in my towel.
My pen is goin' *thump* *thump*,
'cause the machine's goin' *thump* *thump*,
is it clear that I'm impatient?
(well I am)
I long to feel tomorrow,
risin' upwards through my bones --
last month sucked and I want a change...
Don't you find than strange -- No?
My number ain't in service,
but I'll listen all the same -- so,
Come on over, come on over,
although I might seem strange......
'sittin on the stairs now,
still in my towel.....
blood in my toes goes *thump* *thump*,
the washing machine made my legs numb.
Why was I sittin there? *thump*
The novelty was different.
(I still) long to feel tomorrow,
underneath my feet --
runnin' through today just seemed so plain,
I find you abscence strange....
Are you on you way now,
'cause talk might be uplifting.
Come on over, come on over,
though, I might seem strange.
Do you remember the time that we spent
yelling at the world?
It felt so think, so stony --
unwieldy like poetry.
-- We can sit on towels;
laugh over the *thump* *thump* *thump*
... Of the Washing Machine.
