The creeps in your toothbrush

Its just a habit
You dont give us a second thought
You just add toothpaste
And a drop of water and prop open your jaw

Then you start scubbing
And our fun begins
A hundred bristles chattering
About your personal life and sins

We seen you after breakfast
Darling, plain wheatabix is boring!
But who can be creative
When they're tired from hubby snoring

Ooh salad for lunch
I hope thats salad creme on the side
Or did you have Office John for dessert agin?
Under his desk, is that where you hide?

You had oysters and spinach for dinner
But you dont like that food!
Was it dinner with the inlaws again?
I hope this time they weren't rude.

And for Tea it looks like popcorn...
Were you at the movies
Did you go alone
Or bring carwash man who always calls you sexy suzie?

We only ever see you
A total of four minutes a day
But we know all the secrets
You wouldn't open your mouth to say.
