Ever Sniffed a Dollar Bill

It's impossible to hum with your nose blocked Don't try it you'll give yourself a hernia About two hundred babies are born every minute Guess there's not much doing in suburbia Dust under your bed is your own dead skin Unbelievable but that's what they say There are more nerve cells in the human brain Than there's stars in the Milky Way The water you drink has already been drunk By others, what a charming thought Donkeys kill more people than plane crashes That's not something I think of a lot A million dollars in one hundred dollar bills Weighs only about twenty-two pounds A disposable diaper holds seven pounds of pee That's too much information I've found 97% of money contains a trace of cocaine Have you sniffed your dollar bills of late The glue on Israeli stamps is certified kosher This leaves me in an overwrought state 10 million bricks are in the Empire State Building Masons surely had a heavy load That's it for now but there'll be more to follow Keep an eye out for them down the road

Your words are quite clever but informative, Jack. A well-constructed poem with a perfect rhyme scheme. The stanza about pee was too much information for me too. Ha! Seriously, I liked it. Making it a fav! Sara
