(to: “Shout to the Lord”)

Flush to the o-cean, o hear the flushing  
Power of the handle, hear water rushing!  
Mountains bow down and people roar  
At the smell, of your shame!

I sing for joy at the work of your hand  
Forever a flusher, forever a friend!  
Nothing compares to the freshness I have  
With you…

When I go (when I go) into the john (into the john)  
When I go into the john.  
I hope you flushed the toilet  
When I go into the john.

For all who poop and then forget to flush,  
Who we believe must have brains of mush,  
Thy Name, O Poopers, be forever :wally.  
Gross, Gross!

This thread would be incomplete without a tribute to one of the greatest No. 2 songs ever, which will never be eliminated from the pantheon of greatness. I give you Screamin’ Jay Hawkins and _Constipation Blues_ (excerpt):

\*"Got a pain down inside  
Won’t be denied  
Yeah, every time I try  
I can’t be satisfied  
Let it go!  
WOAH, UMMH  
Let it, let it go!  
OH!  
WAAAAOOOH!  
This pain down inside  
Just won’t let me be satisfied  
Let it go!

SPLASH!!! SPSHHH…  
Feel, ah, I feel alright  
Yeah, I feel alright now  
SPLASH!!! Shpsh…  
Yeah  
I feel alright  
SPLASH!  
Flush

Phew

Phew

Phew…

**Feel alright**"\*

Greatest blues song ever.

My thanks as well…

Now I know all those afternoons in Primary weren’t a total waste of time!

_Primary is a sort of once a week afternoon school for LDS children_

You know, it really isn’t an “official” poop thread until _lieu_ has joined in. Anyone know where he is?

Also, here is my secular contribution, with abject apologies to Tears for Fears.

\*Flush, flush,  
flush it on down.  
There go the things that are yellow and brown.  
Come on,  
we’re smellin’ your poo  
So flush!

Flush, flush,  
flush it on down.  
Never forget to pull the lever down.  
Come on,  
We want the place fresh,  
So flush!

In urgent times  
We shouldn’t have to smell your bowl  
Of leavings vile  
You really really ought to know  
Our noses burned  
You must be a walking fart  
Please say goodbye  
We shouldn’t have to hold our nose  
We shouldn’t have to check who goes.

Refrain:

You were given soap  
And in return you gave us smells  
As warm as your butt  
I hope we live to “smell” you out!  
We shouldn’t have to shout it out, so

Refrain: \*

Yeap. I’m not much of a parodist.
