Shampoo

I was watching a commercial

The one advertising that shampoo--

I heard the woman in the shower,

And I thought, "Why can't I do that, too?"

So I went downtown and bought some

Wanting to get my own kicks

I brought it home to take a shower

And get my essence of herbal fix.

But it was just like any other

I tell you, those ads, they LIE!

First it lathered up like normal, 

But then I got some in my eye!

It burned like some hellish fire

I couldn't seem to rinse it out

With so much painful swearing, 

I was sure the neighbors heard me shout!

So I switched back to my "no more tears"

It really does the trick for me

It makes my hair so silky-soft,

And my eyes now stay tear-free.
