Germs on Your Money

By Elton Camp   

Who can know where your money has been
Was stuffed into shorts at a male stripper den
Or the prostitute stuffed it away safely hid
As the of Venereal Disease John she got rid

Oh, you say my money’s never been such places
But still, of germs and viruses it may have traces
Actually, of careful studies there have been few
And more are needed to know what is really true

In 1972, the AMA studied both coins and bills
Their findings could easily enough give chills
On 13 percent of coins, harmful germs were found
And 42 percent of bank notes also had them around

A University of California study is cause for care,
Finding Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli there 
Making it even worse, pathogens such as these
Come from nasal mucus and from human feces

But to cause disease, even threats like those
Require that we scratch our eyes or our nose
Mother knew the best bet for us to stay well
“Always wash your hands,” is what she’d tell.
