The Bathroom Is a Creepy Place for Pictures of Your Friends Lyrics

the bathwater's cold
I cannot even feel my lips
they are turning white
I'm quite worked-up by you tonight
and I can't even sleep
so here I am, it's four a.m.
shaving in your fifties tub with lady remington
and pictures line the wall of people i've never met
who they are and why they're here
and why they're staring at me now
the bathroom is a creepy place for pictures of your friends
it is a creepy place for pictures of your friends
it is a creepy place for pictures of your friends
ooh ooh ooh

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This is one of the few love songs i like. Really i love this song. It's quite possibly my favorite song from this album. He is in love and as he just cant quite find the words he gets caught up in this strange image of pictures in a bathroom. It's so brilliantly simple it blows me away. With such strange words and so little it's just an incredible song. You have to hear it to get the full effect. Though i have not yet met a woman you understands this song...

I still don't understand what the singer is getting at. Okay, he's in his bathtub, late at night, and thinking about someone he loves. What's with the 50's tub, and lady remington. I really don't get it at all.

This song paints a really surreal picture in your mind, and I think that is its purpose.
