Dentists I Dread
Don't Look Now He Is Coming
I hope my dentist doesn't read this
My bill will double and I will be in lots of trouble
I come regularly every 6 months like clock work
Unavoidable and I can not escape no matter how hard I try
I can move but it is never far enough away from the dentist who I fear
He says he is my friend but with all that drilling
How could he be ?
I think he is a masked villian who has me under his clenches
I am his victim and I do not let him see me cry
For he sees the pain in my eyes
I grab hold of the arms of the chair and squeeze tight
I think of happy thoughts
That didn't work just do what you do
And I know it is going to HURT!
Why I come is beyond me
I must like pain and suffering
Not true I want to leave soon
I remember as a kid they bribed you with a metal ring
I fell for that trick but not this time I am smarter now
I have learned how to take it on the chin
Yes I want to have a nice smile and grin at wonderful things
But how can I?
When you hold my mouth open for days at a time
As you go get coffee or do laundry and read the paper
I close my eyes then open them to see
The master criminal who is hidden from sight
Is he going to pull a tooth that I have had my whole life
Oh thank god he's not
Oh great he is going for the drill
My stomach is twisted in knots
I hope I don't throw up
I will be tortured for longer than I can stand
When will he be done
Hasn't he had enough fun
I want to get up and run
But I know the friendly receptionist will catch me for sure
Then I have to start the whole process all over again
When I least expect it
The drilling has stopped
What happened to those other people
Who came and went
Why were they allowed to leave?
What happens if I sneeze while he drills?
I will have the biggest mal practice suit
Who am I kidding
Next time I will have to be put under
A fate worse than death
Please just give me the bill
I want a cheap metal ring
I deserve it for all my sweat and tears
Move over little girl its my turn now
I want that one
It is my trophy for beating the villian once again
SURE HE MADE ME YELL ONE TIME TOO MANY
But he still didn't get all my teeth
I think I just have too many
