Poopy Man - A nappy changer's song.

During a text conversation with Brother D (metalharmony) this morning I commented that I had just changed a particularly hideous nappy, he commented jokingly that I was a lucky man. An idea was born and I decided to re-work the lyrics to The Verve's classic "Lucky Man" accordingly. Maybe one day I'll re-string the acoustic guitar, dust off my Fostex 4-track and record it. Maybe The Verve will sue me too:

Nappy mess
Hold your breath
I’m at the changing mat
Scared at what I’m looking at
Oh, my, my
Nappy mess
Lumpy and flowing
I watch you smile at me
And the smell is growing
I know, it’s looking bad

How many times won’t you just lie still?
How many nappies make me feel so ill?
Every time I don’t know what I’ll find

Yes I’m a lucky man
With poopy on my hand

Nappy mess
Something of an outrage
You lie there grinning
I’m wiping the whole stinky place
I need a mask

Nappy mess
Lumpy and flowing
I watch you smile at me
And the smell keeps growing
Oh no, it’s really bad

How many wipes will it take to clean?
How many times will I just turn green?
Every time I don’t know what I’ll find

I’ve got it on my hand!
I’ve got it on my hand!

Gotta stink that'll never die

Nappy mess
Hold your breath
I’m at the changing mat
Scared at what I’m looking at
Nappy mess
Chunky and flowing
I see you smile at me
Stinky funk is growing
I know
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my

Gotta stink that'll never die
Gotta stink that'll never die
Oh, no
I'm a poopy man

I’m at the changing mat
Scared at what I’m looking at
I’m at the changing mat
How did you come up with that?
I’m at the changing mat
Fumigate the bloody flat
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
I’m at the changing mat
Scarred by what I’m looking at
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
