Language Barrier















Dr. Esmailin de la Dientes;
My Hispanica dentist friend,
Each visit is like a fiesta,
Though he’s hard to comprehend.

His hands are big as a catcher’s glove;
Each finger like a thumb.
But he’ll pinch your cheek with those magic hands
And make your face go numb!?

There’s a TV in the ceiling
And his chairs are like a bed.
But the musica’s all mariachi,
And I can’t catch a word that is said!

I’m amused by Dr. Esmailin,
Mi amigo from the south.
He never asks me a question
'Til his hands are in my mouth!

Rackin' Frackin' . . . Frusser Musser












When it comes to fixing cars and such,
Trust me, I'm no good.
If it has to do with nuts and bolts,
I'm never in the mood.

I can change my oil if the moon is right
And if its not too hot.
But I wouldn't know a nimrod
If you tied one in a knot!

Today I had a thoughtful thought;
It should help me out forth hence.
I'll put the box of band-aids on
Before I turn the wrench!
