Lyrics
Bottoms Up
By Tim Bays
© 2005 In Cahoots Music (ASCAP)
A tongue-in-cheek "public service announcement" that turns into a sing-a-long
The doctors say at 50 get a colonoscopy
And if you wonder what a colonoscopy might be
It's an exploratory entry where nobody ought to be
Yes, a penetrating peek inside your slacks
An intimate inspection of that holy place in back
And that puts a whole new meaning on the phrase "Now open wide"
It's good to go to see the doc but who wants one inside?
They tell me that it doesn't hurt but I suspect they lied
Still it's something everybody needs ("women too")
Even if it drives you to your knees ("Bend over")
I'm talkin' 'bout that colonoscopy...so
Chorus
Bottoms up (bottoms up) here's to you (here's to you)
For exploring every single avenue (avenue)
And for caring about yourself enough (enough)
Here's to you (here's to you) bottoms up (bottoms up)
Yes, it's hard to see a problem down where the sun don't shine
And doctors say a screening will shed a lot of light
And even if you're feeling is that everything is fine
Wouldn't it be good to know that's true
Cause we don't have the doctor's point of view
That's something even gymnasts can not do...Chorus
Chorus
Bottoms up (bottoms up) here's to you (here's to you)
For exploring every single avenue (avenue)
And for caring about yourself enough (enough)
Here's to you (here's to you) bottoms up (bottoms up)
