I believe I got the idea for this song while reading Breath by James Nestor, which is a very interesting book. It's all about breathing. I was curious about it because I was working a gig where I dealt a lot of folks who had trouble breathing. Nestor covers a lot of topics related to breathing, and one of the most curious ones is the connection between the nose and eroticism. He mentions a condition called honeymoon rhinitis, wherein a person sneezes uncontrollably during intimate encounters. Now there's a topic for a silly love song! Musicwise, I channeled Kurt Cobain scoring an ad for Viagra. The lyrics are below. It's the same deal as always. If you like a
song, then feel free to cover it if you're in a band or whatnot. I love
to hear covers of my songs, so please let me know about your version.
If you start making money, then send me a check/we can work out a deal.
Similarly, if you want to use a song for your Youtube video or whatnot,
then just let me know. It's usually fine by me unless it's a
commercial product or whatnot (and then it's likely fine as well--I just
want my cut). Find out first though. Write me at wredfright ATATAT

Just the scent of you
Makes me reach for a tissue
I get so excited that
Even though I try to fight it
Honeymoon Rhinitis
I try to hold it back
But out it comes, the sneezing attack
I get so embarrassed
We haven't even fully undressed
You don't have to keep saying Gesundheit
Maybe just turn out the light
Our love will never run dry
Because there will always be a tear in my eye
