Lyrics
Transcribed from official lyric sheets available at emplive.com by Chris Lawrence, and sequenced to best reflect the vocals on the 1988.01.23 demo. In instances where the sung lyrics clearly do not match the written lyrics, an approximation has been made and these unofficial lyrics are detailed in capital letters.

BEESWAX

I was a seeking out for a funnel
Not only magnets but I could pry bar it shut
Gluing my manhood TO THE manhole
Like Pepe Lepew the scent hey hey had a weight clutch

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

STUPID assbutton
Tweeking and flexing if the wind blows just right
Tacky and thumbs on polyester
Highwater jumpsuits and a raped ape
Woody has Pix-n-Fact

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

My how you've grown
I gotta DROP D silly string
Don't trust the foams
????????????????????

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

Vinegar and water is gaining monthly
Fiberglass insulation disguised as cotton candy
Spahning down stream El Rancho ovulate
Feeding a cow hamburger and raw
Peter has brought me the tiki idol
Billy's sneer reminds me of someone
Homesick a bay aboard the love boat
Toni Tenille Sonny Bono Charo
Had a nice set of lungs

I got my titilate spayed
I got UNLIMITED
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed

SECOND BRIDGE: ???????????

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate




Alternative interpretation

Why doesnt she need him for a father
Not only maidens can occupy my shack
Gluing my manhood turns a man off
Like Pepe Lepew would say, hey hey hey we clash

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

Someone laughs about it
Tweeking and flexing if the wind blows just right
Jacking them selfs off polyester
I wanna jumpsuit ??????
When am I getting it back

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

I dont know why
I gotta joke to silly to say
Dont touch the balls
I got a dick, dick... hear my f**king hate!!!

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate

Vinegar and water is gaining monthly
Fiberglass insulation disguised as cotton candy
Spahning down stream El Rancho ovulate
Feeding a cow hamburger and raw
Peter has brought me the tiki idol
Billy Slim reminds me of someone
Homesick a bay aboard the love boat
Toni Tenille Sonny Bono Charo
Had a nice set of lungs

I got a little tail
I got UNLIMITED
I got a little tail
I got a little tail

SECOND BRIDGE: ???????????

I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate
