Foot-In-Mouth

Sometimes I'm a victim of “foot-in-mouth” disease Let me rephrase that, OFTEN a victim, down on my knees No man is perfect Mean no disrespect Being human is the fault, life has no guarantees

Nobody really knows//Why we chew on our toes//Doesn't make sense//But we're pretty dense//Simultaneously I can insert foot AND pick nose! (how's that for talent?:-) NIBBLE ON JACKSON!!!

Dang Jack we all make mistakes, sometimes the foot slips off the brakes, plow in to trouble, climb out from the rubble, swallow hard to get rid of the taste

We ALL are victims at one time or another! It just that my foot sometimes gets so lodged, it takes a lot of talking to dislodge it! LOL Thanks Gayle for dropping by! Love & Hugs, Jack xxx
