Charles Bukowski - Cockroach lyrics

The cockroach crouched against the tile
While I was pissing and as i turned my head
He hauled his butt into a crack
I got the can and sprayed
And sprayed and sprayed
And finally the roach came out
And gave me a very dirty look
Then he fell down into
The bathtub and I watched him dying
With a subtle pleasure because I paid rent
And he didn't i picked him up with
Some greenblue toilet paper and flushed him
Away that's all there was to that, except
Around Hollywood and western we have to
Keep doing it they say some day that
Tribe is going to inherit the earth
But we're going to make them wait a
Few months
