Story Behind The Song
I was at a song circle and we all threw topic ideas in the hat for the next month's meeting. I was being goofy adn wrote "wediges" on a piece of paper. Well, wouldn't you know my topic got chosen and everyone had to write about wedgies. I ahd some help writing this, but the other writers dont' want any credit (seriously).

Lyrics
It was a dark and stormy night
There was no avoiding my destiny
I tried to put up a fight
But there was no escaping? the wedgie
I?d rather get the rack I?d rather walk the plank
Than have to re-live that vertical yank
I live with the impending feeling of doom
From that close encounter with the fruit of the loom
The wedgie
If I ever had a question
I am sure now of what I believe
The preacher was right when he said Sunday night
It is better to give than receive
The wedgie
I thought I had almost forgotten the trauma
Forgiven the people who?d done me so wrong
Til my recent vacation the Sunny Bahamas
And everyone there was wearing a thong!
Flashbacks! Seizures! Heart Palpitations!
An untimely end to my lovely vacation
My friends Mike and Dan say they can?t understand
Why I can?t put it all? behind me
The wedgie
I found a therapist in the field
Many dollars and several months later
We finally conclude it was my attitude
Fear is great but a brave act is greater
I would never adjust ?til I did what I must
And so nervous and frightened and edgy
I approached my best friend reached out toward his rear end
And with all of my might pulled to maximum height
And I screamed out in triumph?.. Wedgie!
