The Shower Scene (Live in Riverside / 2023)

Good afternoon
Here we have a quiet little motel
Tucked away off the main highway
And as you see, perfectly harmless looking
When in fact, the most dire, horrible events took place
It has now become known as "the scene of the crime"

Well, come on in, the weather's dreadful
We always have a room to spare
Don't mind mother, she is not well
The doctors say she's not all there
She's crazy, I must confess
So sick of cleaning up her mess
Sing it!

(I hope) saying goodnight
Doesn't mean saying goodbye
Now under the pressure, we're drowning together
Going down the drain tonight
(The drain tonight)

Come on back, I'll fix you something
Be careful not to cross the line
'Cause she and I are sure of one thing
We all go a little mad sometimes

Well, she's crazy, I must confess!
Listen to mother!
It's always me cleaning up her mess

I hope saying goodnight
Doesn't mean saying goodbye
Now under the pressure, we're drowning together
Going down the drain tonight
(The drain tonight!)
(The drain tonight!)

I can't come clean
You got caught up Inn between
I can't, I can't come clean
You can't escape the shower scene!
You can't escape the shower scene
The shower scene!

California, scream with us or die
It's always me cleaning up her mess

I hope (saying goodnight)
Doesn't mean saying goodbye
Now under the pressure, we're drowning together
Going down the drain tonight (the drain tonight!)
Get your knives in the sky!
The drain tonight!
The drain tonight!

Can I help you, sir?
Sure hope you can
I'm looking for a young woman who's been missing for several days now
I have reason to believe she may have stopped off at this very motel
