Lyrics

The cold fever, a cellular germ
The stray tingle, a chemical burn
Go away, go away, cuz I don't wanna see you

The same cycle, everyday
This sick head, gonna wash it away
Go away, go away, go away

    You make me feel so clean
    You make me kick and scream
    You make me, you make me
    You make me feel so clean

A snap, crackle, a fizzling sound
My skin itches and twitches around
Go away, go away, cuz I don't wanna feel you

My pulse races and wanders astray
This sick head, gonna burn it away
Go away, go away, go away

     [chorus]

I lather and rinse and repeat
You leave me feeling complete
Go away, go away, cuz I don't wanna keep you

I lather and rinse and repeat
You leave me feeling complete
Go away, go away, go away

    [chorus]

Dear Josh, I must know how you were inspired to write this. This song sticks out in my mind as one of the most unusual songs I've heard, and I'd like to know the inspiration. Thanks Logan

Inspiration?

When I was young, I noticed "methylchloroisothiazolinone" as an ingredient in shampoo, and it planted a seed of curiousity. *shrugs* There weren't enough songs about shampoo, so I decided to fix that. :)

As far as I'm concerned, this is the only song about shampoo I know. And I'd have to say, hope it stays that way. I love all your works, keep doing what you're doing. <3
