Wouldn't "thrown it in yet" be stronger?

BTW, with "she was taking my deposit/when our eyes met/at the sperm bank" --it is revealed, later in the (unwritten) song, to be the nurse simply picking up the container from inside the room that he has vacated when he turns back and their "eyes meet." Something totally innocent. And "true love" would be the theme. Just the setting is odd and the "deposit" line is meant to be taken as a more graphic thing early in the song, but then revealed, later, to be an innocent image in a song about true love. You know, a novelty song, something that Jim Stafford or Ray Stevens might've sung..
