"I draw a hot sorrow bath

in my despair room

with a misery candle burning

i wash my hair with regret shampoo

after cleaning myself with pain soap

i dry myself with my gorgeous white

one hundred percent and it will never change towel

then smooth on my i don’t deserve lotion

and i hate myself face cream

then i put on my alone again silk pyjamas

and go to sleep

when the hue has gone blue

and you can’t quite grin and bear it

let this word picture remind you

it can always be worse
