Lyric discussion by utter imbecile 

worth noting that don delillo's "white noise", which deals extensively with the idea that the modern matrix of information and sensation overwhelms us, has a chapter in which several academics discuss pissing in sinks as a way of getting in touch with the folklore of america -- and then, two chapters later, tenessee williams is mentioned. i'm certain that the song has nothing to do with the book, but it's entirely possible that berninger was reading it or flipping through it at the time.

I would probably have never read that anywhere else. Thank you, utter imbecile. That is an awesome reference to tell people.
