I have a friend whose name is John,
Who is a cleaning freak,
He vacuums twice a day at least,
And deep cleans one a week,
To him dust bunnies are a call to arms,
Dirt simply can’t exist,
A can of Pledge and elbow grease,
Not a spot he’s ever missed,
He cleans his light bulbs once a month,
Light fixtures every day,
He’d just as soon be washing clothes,
As going out to play,
Mr. Clean is John’s one hero,
Handi-wipes his constant friend,
Toilet bowls his mortal enemy,
Their battles never end,
Now I often say to my friend John,
I wonder at your life,
But I do know someday that you’ll make,
Some girl a heck of a wife.
