PISS-BOTTLE MAN
There are some things a guy gets from his Pop
Some of those things get spaced, others are never forgot
I got such a tradition, I keep in my truck cab
Oooo Oooo Oooo
Piss bottle man
Oooo Oooo Oooo
Piss bottle man
Miles and miles and all the while I feel secure
Even when the fuse gets short I can keep my nerve
Believe in such a tradition, I got in my truck cab
Oooo Oooo Oooo
Piss bottle man
Oooo Oooo Oooo

Oooo Oooo Oooo
Piss bottle man
Piss bottle man
Piss bottle man
Oooo Oooo Oooo
Piss bottle man
Driving in his shoes, using the bottle he used
Every time I pop I think of my Pop and pay my dues
Respect such a tradition, a shrine in my truck cab.

— Mike Watt
This post is kind of a response to the recent post by Brotha' G., over on Sunnyside Dr., that just snuck up and smacked me in the face so to speak.
. . . I been had that CRAZY picture of WATT w/ said bottles (from god only knows where originally?) . . . I love the man, WATT . . . and I had been recently thinking about him, reading a freshish tour diary . . . and knowing that he was going to be in Dublin again for this past Bloomsday, He's a big fan of "Ulysses". I had been meaning to read his spiel about it this time around, which I remembered to read just now. . . . Oh Yeah, I just remembered this, I also recently had a dream where I was telling my 'meeting Mike Watt story' but as dreams usually go I don't think I ever got to the punch-line of it, not that there is one really?
An interesting fact from what WATT wrote about being in Dublin this time around, he says that two-thirds of the songs he did for "Double Nickels . . ." were influenced by his first reading of "Ulysses", I knew about the instrumental on the album titled "June 16th" but I'll really have to go back over the rest of his songs on that classic.

UPDATE:
Not only did I find the picture below of Watt and the statue of Joyce but I also saw an article about Watt being on an album of artists setting Joyce's "Chamber Music" to music. I'm going to have to track that down.

Nice pic. Makes me wonder how many of those are lying on the side of the highway down near Pedro. Also makes me think it might be time for me to buy the patent on the Pissbottle 2000 and get it on the shelves at Sheetz across this great, overly hydrated, urine drenched land we call the US of A.
Yeah, i meant to mention the pee-bottle 2000, you should never have gotten out of that one. at least've taken out stock in it.
