Ever heard the long version?

Here I sit, inhaling vapors,  
The guy before me left no papers  
Still, I can’t stay, and I can’t linger,  
I guess I’ll have to use my finger.

In the mens room in the urinal at the bar in Hathaway Montana:

“Remember, the same hands that pick your cigarette butts out of this urinal put the ice in your drink.”

And in Missoula Montana in the Rhino:

“Rat Camaro’s of the Bitteroot”  
(At “rat” car is one that’s beat up, with a lot of primer. The Bitteroot is a nearby geographical area.)

My elementary school was right next to St.Patricks church. On the wall of a stall it just said "God is watching you"I was very impressionable and I still am.

Thats a lyric from a Presidents of the United States of America song. When did you see that? If it was Pre 1994 that may have been the insperation for the song!

Saw this in the early 1970s. I still think it’s the best ever:

DON’T CHANGE DICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF A SCREW  
VOTE FOR NIXON IN '72

This is from a washroom in a correctional facility. I drove a friend there so she could visit her boyfriend. There was an sign placed above the urinal that said, “Don’t throw cigarette butts in the urunal.” Below that, someone wrote, “Yeah it makes them hard to light.”
