I Stink!

Of course I do not want a bath, even though I have a funk

That reeks so bad, my mom is sad. She just called me a skunk

I want to play with Bobby, but he bounced away from me

I tried to play with Trina, but she scrambled up a tree

I thought that maybe Joseph, wouldn’t notice I smelled bad

Because he inherited halitosis from his hairy dad

But when I went to talk to him, he up and ran away

So I guess I’ll need to take a bath if I really want to play

    There's never any reason
    in any time or season
    to inflict that smell pollution
    soap and water's the solution.
    Forget your hairy dad
    he never smelled that bad
    'cept when an SBD
    crept o'er the family!
    We love to play with you
    just please don't reek with goo
    Keep yourself real clean
    and people won't be mean.

    Love ya, mom

    The SBD's were rancid. Like old fruit in the sun.

    In a nuclear winter.

  6. Dave says:

    Hell fire man! I can smell you from all the way over the pond!

  7. writerdad says:

    That's too bad. I did shower after that posted last week. It's sad I'm getting ripe so soon.
