Bell on door clang, come on in
Floyd observes my hairy chin
Sit down chair, don't be afraid
Steamed hot towel on my face

I was shaved
I was shaved
I was shaved

Barney ties me to the chair
I can't see, I'm really scared
Floyd breathes hard, I hear a zip
Pee-pee pressed against my lips

I was shamed
I was shamed
I was shamed

I sense others in the room
Opie, Aunt Bee, I presume
They take turns and cut me up
I die smothered in aunt Bee's muff

I was shamed
I was shamed
I was shamed

    In this song, the "homely fantasy" of Mayberry (Opposite of Aberdeen) is turned into a night mare. Kurt could have also drawn from a comic strip parody of the Andy Griffith show by Drew and John Friedman. It is a remix of a Dale Crover demo that was done with Cobain and Novoselic.
