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 wane, cries out my brain.

Broken filling, dental drilling
O' curse the bane of toothache pain
I'd be killing, if God be 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 fit the bill, the blessed pill
Transcend dental medication.

You have listed one of my two bestest friends: Tylenol 3 (big whoppin 500ml tabs, oh yeah, baby) and the other being Icy/Hot, the soothing salve for stressed sinews.

To the dentist I have went,
Because the pain would not relent,
He yanked the tooth with instrument,
I found relief, was heaven-sent,
No more I'll sing my pain's lament,
In toothless grin, I am content.

With patch on eye
And hook on hand
A wooden leg
A toothless grin
I see no reason
For chagrin.............
