Erection Lyrics

It's a scene from a movie
It's an aisle of the store
It's the view of a canyon
The sound of the sword
It's an orchard of peaches
Your wife, in the shower
While you wait for appointments
As you walk through the park

Oh, uh oh, erection

You know it's not only love, dear
That can flip the switch up
And though it probably should be
Maybe God fucked it up

Oh, uh oh, erection

It boiled up like a tower
A monument in the park
It's the cock of a rifle
The memory in the dark
You tried to keep it a secret
And that world's going to know
You've tried for perfection

But then oh, uh oh, erection
Oh, uh oh, erection

it's not widely known but in the line 'you know it's not only love dear that can flip the switch up' that instead of flip it was supposed to be flick but Todd couldn't remember.

I'm so sad someone beat me to the Freudian imagery - why do you get to sound like the intellectual? :-P

Probably the best song about erections to be put out in 2004. InUTERO41 nabbed the meaning well.

& I believe it's "Oh. Uh-oh, Erection" as well.
