Clown Pants

Been feeling a bit extra strange today
Can't imagine what's the reason
My tightie whities must be a little too tight
Think lately, I'm overeating

3X most likely is my new size now
Please keep this our little secret
Sadly my diet plan has been a bit of a failure
Was trying hard to be my sleekest

I do possess other redeeming factors
I can stand on my head and spit nickels
Not impressed? Then how about this
I can whistle through my nipples

It all comes back to my tightie whities
The sooner I change 'em the better
Think I'll started wearing airy clown pants
With polka dots, numbers and letters

Say hello when the circus comes to town
You won't miss me, that is for sure
Especially with the big red nose I'll be wearing
Looking oh so extremely mature!

Debbie Guzzi Date: 12/13/2013 7:35:00 PM silly man!!! I think it would be fun to be a clown for 1 time and make kids laugh! I was the Easter bunny once in a fine costume with a BIG bunny head [very hot!] Where my Santa's new adventure? And don't tell me the same old Santa story, give me a 21st century Santa! or a prehistoric Santa?

But you probably already knew that, right? Love and hugs XOXOXOX

Carol Eastman Date: 12/13/2013 7:19:00 AM Ha! Mature! You should see Dragon's hurt big toe! If we're not careful, he'll have everyone bowing down to kiss it! Too Late!...It's gone to his head! You two should come down and see the living Nativity with Dragon... It's a hoot! I told him he's not supposed to take the attention from baby Jesus... He said while there, he is getting baby Jesus LOTS of attention... I can see it now! Jesus is looking Down... First he'll GROAN! Then he'll laugh! That just might be the best birthday present ever!

Have a great December day, my friend!!!

Russell Sivey Date: 12/13/2013 7:19:00 AM Ah ha ha, yes, Jack the clown, that would be a sight to see! You know I have worn all that get up before myself when I was younger, I was the entertainment for a kids birthday party...I was terrible...so bad I was funny, but not exactly in the way I wanted it to be like, ha ha!
