A Trip To Paris
A Trip to Paris
By Elton Camp
On the shuttle bus from de Gaulle airport
Is the first thing candor requires to report
Body odor was no doubt that horrible smell
In the city we could often detect urine as well
Seeing the French with their dogs was a delight
But their manure littering the sidewalks is a sight
But when nature calls for the humans it’s a mess
They clean their toilets once in a while, I guess
Another strange thing about toilets that I must say
If you want to use them, then be prepared to pay
And the car drivers are just as reckless as can be
Besides that, many obnoxious scooters you see
Scooters often go the wrong way down the street
And even on sidewalks you are likely them to meet
But the main thing that really makes me quite mad
Some don’t speak English and others only very bad
