The Stench of Piss
Pro-Pain Lyrics

Look, there's hard luck Willie
Here is a homeless man named Willie who has had a string of bad luck.

He begs for bucks sometimes
Willie often asks for money from passersby.

He ain't never bothered nobody
Although Willie is homeless, he has never caused trouble for anyone.

And nobody bothered to hand him a dime
Despite his non-threatening nature, people refuse to give Willie any money.

He don't want to work
Willie has chosen not to pursue employment opportunities.

Cause he looks like a bum and he stinks like a turk
Willie appears disheveled and has a less-than-pleasant odor.

But he'll survive, they say, to urinate where you eat someday
Despite his circumstances, people believe that Willie will someday be successful enough to disrespect those who did not help him when he was in need.

Leave this life behind you honey and don't you ever come back
The singer advises someone to leave the dangerous and undesirable conditions of city life permanently.

These streets are paved with violence, Broken dreams, and vials of crack
The urban environment is dangerous and has caused the dreams of many to go unfulfilled due to drug addiction and crime.

So sick of living in a city where ignorance is truly bliss
The singer is tired of residing in a place where people are content with their current situation, despite its negative aspects.

Mass transit, penn station, ass rancid With the scent of piss
The singer describes the unpleasant smell of urine in locations such as public transit systems and train stations.

Why do they call him Willie?
The singer wonders about the origin of Willie's name.

And what will he do for money?
The singer questions how Willie plans to obtain funds.

Will he sell his ass and get cash for sex?
The singer asks if Willie would be willing to engage in prostitution.

What will he think of next?
The singer ponders what other avenues Willie may take to make money.

Got a couple of johns on file
Willie has several regular customers.

He was willing to serve with a smile
Willie was always eager to provide services for his clients.

So he sold himself for the price of a fix
Willie offered services in exchange for drugs.

And the next day willie called in sick
The following day, Willie did not show up for work.

Bus terminal, port authority, portapotty With the stench of piss
The smell of urine is prevalent in locations such as bus stations, ports, and public restrooms.

They cry as they lie in their filth, I call it a crime
The singer believes that those who are intoxicated to the point of vomiting and defecating on themselves are an unfortunate sight.

So drunk they can drown in their puke, of bile and wine
Some individuals have consumed so much alcohol that they are at risk of asphyxiating on their own vomit.

Defecation in general can heat seal your nose with a kiss
The smell of feces is unpleasant enough to be considered an unwelcome kiss from one's nose.

So don't bother holding your breath - inhale some of this.
The singer sarcastically advises listeners to simply accept the current situation and unpleasant smells.
