Thornton pens song to raise venereal disease awareness

LONDON - Actor and singer Billy Bob Thornton wants to create awareness about venereal disease through a song.

Contactmusic.com reports that the Oscar winning actor, who is the leader of the band The Boxmasters, thinks there aren’t enough songs about the dangers of sexually transmitted diseases and he wants to write one.

“On the next record… we actually have a song coming out about venereal disease, which I think needs to be talked about, and it’s a song called ‘It Only Hurts When I Pee’,” he said.
