“Bathtub” is the 10th song on The Front Bottoms’s self titled album.
The song tells about the narrator thinking he needs to change (probably for a girl), but is not sure if he wants to drop every part of him.
Brian says here, “There’s so much in this song. Take it for what it’s worth.”
[Verse 1]
I am washing my hair with soap
I am sitting down in the shower
It is this dirty type of clean
That keeps me trapped in here for hours
Still, I scrub and scrub until my body bleeds
Convince myself I am coming clean
Forget and ignore who I used to be
That kid is never coming back
[Bridge]
Relax my muscles
[Chorus]
All of a sudden, I am scared
All of a sudden, I can’t breathe
All of a sudden, I am nothing
In this moment, you are everything
She says, "Can you feel that?
Oh, what a marvelous sensation"
She says, "Could you please take me off speaker phone?
This is a private conversation"
And I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
With soap
[Verse 2]
But there is air inside of my lungs
And it is keeping me afloat
He says his grandpa’s in the mafia
He is the nicest guy I know
So I will run and run, maybe drive my car, baby
Look at me now, I have come so far
And I don’t know where my family’s from
But I’ve got this stereotypical temper I cannot shake
[Bridge]
Relax all the muscles in my face
[Chorus]
All of a sudden, I am scared
All of a sudden, I can’t breathe
All of a sudden, I am nothing
In this moment, you are everything
She says, "Could you feel that?
Oh, what a marvelous sensation"
She says, "Could you please take me off speaker phone?
This is a private conversation"
And I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
Yes, I am washing my hair with soap
With soap

The speakerphone thing was something that actually happened. I was at a party, I was on speakerphone, because I was fucked up and we were just having a good time. And the girl on the other line was pissed, she was like, tak...
