The bathroom fan is on
It’s all that I hear
It’s blasting, blowing, fanning things
The sound is crystal clear

The sink has a drip
It’s all that I hear
It’s pouring, raging, slipping out
The sound is crystal clear

The neighbor is mowing
It’s all that I can hear
He’s hacking off the heads from grass
The sound is crystal clear

The dogs licking his ass
It’s all I fucking hear
From rooms apart he slurps himself
The sound is CRYSTAL CLEAR

The refrigerators humming
It’s all that I can hear
Across the house it’s buzzing loud
Fucking hissing in my ear

The sounds assault my nerves
And stomp across my brain
I’d give my firstborn child
To never hear them again
