BLOODY TOOTHACHE

I reckon that toothache and earache are the two worst aches there are,both as unbearable as the other,I had one such toothache that drove me to insanity and thus this poem


I'VE HAD THIS BLOODY TOOTHACHE,
ITS DRIVING ME INSANE,
NO SOONER I GET RID OF IT,
THE BASTARDS BACK AGAIN.
I COULDN'T EAT AT BREAKFAST
MY LUNCH I COULDN'T TAKE
AND MY WILDEST DREAM AT THIS TIME
IS TO EAT A PIECE OF STEAK.
BUT THIS BLOODY ROTTEN, FRIGGIN TOOTH
WON'T LET ME TAKE A BITE
IT HURT ME ALL OF YESTERDAY
AND HALF THE BLOODY NIGHT.
I SIT HERE NUMB WITH CLOVE OIL
CAN'T FEEL ME FACE OR TONGUE
BUT THIS BLOODY ROTTEN BASTARD TOOTH
STILL THE MONGREL STUNG.
IF IT STILL HURTS TOMORROW
I'M CLIMBING ON THE ROOF
THIS PAIN WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME
THIS BLOODY ROTTEN TOOTH.
I'M HALF JUNKED UP WITH ASPRIN
AND OTHER BLOODY STUFF
BUT TRY AND TELL THIS BLOODY TOOTH
ITS E-BLOODY NOUGH
THEY CAN KILL THE PAIN OF PERIODS
AND IT WORKS,THERES NO DENIALS
HEART TRANSPLANTS--NO PROBLEMS
THEY CAN EVEN CURE PILES.
BUT THIS BLOODY ROTTEN TOOTHACHE
THATS DRIVING ME INSANE
NO SOONER I GET RID OF IT-
THE BASTARDS BACK AGAIN.
