Analysis of I Had To Pee



your on the highway
 but you have to pee
 you hold it in
 quite a mystery
 think of the ways you can release the pain
 if this road trip ensues I will go insane
 one foot on the throttle the other to the side
 you take out a plastic bottle and start to piss
 it gets all over you but you are free

free to sit in sweet harmony
 the smell of urine throughout your car
 you chuck the bottle out the door
 a cop pulls you over
 license and registration please
 you get knocked to your knees
 the pee was gone but I sit as a swan on the pond
 I'll figure something out for next trip
