Story behind the song
The hook line of the song came about after a dare was given one evening after a Songwriters' meeting.
Lyrics
Standing in quicksand, up to my knees in muck. I'm really sinking fast, and running outta luck. One buddy's got a rope; another's got a pole. I can't decide which one to grab, to pull me from this hole. (I'm) sitting in my car, and going nowhere fast. I'm stuck in this drive-thru, running outta gas. Gal up front don't seem to know what she want to do. So I'm waiting here a-fussin', my face is turning blue. In my mind, I hear my daddy's words come back to me: "If I told you once, I've told you twice- It's simple don't you see? "Get off the fence, make up your mind, get your butt off of that spot!" "Deficate or vacate-- (**) or get off the pot!" Talkin' on the telephone, voice-mail is killing me. "If you want to speak to so-&-so, press one, or two, or three." Now I'm so frustrated, climbing up a wall, 'cause, by now, I forgoten who in Hell I tried to call! Tryin' to watch the TV, the picture's zipping past. You won't put down the flipper, and my patience's fading fast. Just once, I'd like to see a show in its entirety. It'd be safer on my sanity to get you 3 TV's! In my mind, I hear my daddy's words a-telling me: "If I told you once, I've told you twice- It's simple don't you see? "Get off the fence, make up your mind, get your butt off of that spot!" "Deficate or vacate-- (**) or get off the pot! "Deficate or vacate-- (**) or get off the pot!
