Everybody Poops
A funny alternative-rock song about an unavoidable truth. No matter how important we think we are, nature has a way of keeping everyone equal.

Everybody Poops
Verse 1 Everybody poops Everybody poops Everybody poops in holes Some covered by porcelain thrones Some are nothing but dirt and stones
Some seats are heated Some seats are gold-plated, sanitized and treated Some don’t have seats, you just gotta squat That’s just what you got
Chorus Everybody poops Everybody poops From kings in their marble rooms To kids in their light-up shoes No matter what you own You’re still alone When nature calls the truth
Everybody poops
Verse 2 Not everybody uses toilet paper wipes Some use water jets Others use rocks Some just improvise
Some are terrible Some are easy Some are splashy Some are breezy Some take time Some won’t stop Some you pray just drop
Chorus Everybody poops Everybody poops From penthouse views to camping loops From fancy spa to forest roots No matter what you prove No matter what you choose We all pay nature’s dues
Everybody poops
Bridge (Deadpan / Spoken style) It doesn’t care who you are It doesn’t care what you make It doesn’t care about your car Or the promises you break
When the moment comes There’s no escape
Final Chorus (Bigger but still straight-faced) Everybody poops Everybody poops In silver stalls or muddy boots It humbles presidents and brutes You can laugh or you can mope But there’s no way to elope From the oldest human truth
Everybody poops
