One night my teeth hurt oh so bad,
I got real drunk, and then got mad,
Got the pliers, then got it on,
When I woke up, my teeth were gone.

It hurt real bad, and bled like hell,
All black and blue, my face did swell,
But in a month, things were all right,
Except for food, I cannot bite.

I'd like to say, I don't complain,
At least it's gone, that gol' durn pain,
There is one thing, that makes me blue,
I love to eat, I just can't chew.

As I sit here a eating mush,
I wish I had some teeth to brush,
Without my clothes, I gum steak rare,
I'm what you call, a gummy bare.

Bane of Pain

I lay in bed, I thought t'was dead,
But for the pain, I can't explain,
The pounding dread, within my head,
Why won't it wain, cries out my brain.

Broken filling, dental drilling,
O' curse the bain, of toothache pain,
I'd be killing, if God's willing,
To cease refrain of molar's pain.

What can relieve and grant reprieve,
From curse, the bane, of toothache pain?
It will alleve, I must believe,
Or will abstain, from life mundane.

I cry aloud, I am not proud,
Down on my knees, O' help me please,
To God I vowed, if he allowed,
Relief to ease, the pain appease.

I hear my wife, say stop the strife,
Quit whining dear, or I do fear,
I'll get a knife, to end your life,
To me was clear, the end was near.

Consternation, tribulation,
But then I see, it came to me,
Inspiration, jubilation,
Tylenol three, O' come to me.

I took the pill, and downed with swill,
Pain's vacation, pure elation,
It fill the bill, the blessed pill,
Transcend dental medication.

So you live on mashed potatoes,
cream of corn and
stewed tomatoes?
Applesauce and jello puddin'
