Funny Bone

When you get that funny feeling
From your toes up to the ceiling
Kind of hurts but then again it don't

It's a bit surprising
Makes your eyes go to a crying
All the while chuckling along

You wonder who named this thing
That makes you want to bloody scream
The moment that you hit your Funny Bone 

You say it hurts like...Hey!
Before you get carried away
Take a deep breath and remain calm

As you rub that spot real tight
With what is left of your manly might
Exactly where you'll never know

Still you keep rubbing away
Like there's no end to this crazy day
Trying your best to comfort your Funny Bone

How many times in life you'll hit
There's no way of telling it
Guaranteed though to be more than one

It's just a part of this life
That is humorlessly proved from time to time
From the sound of the many groans

And with all of this being said
The best of secrets never kept
Every time you hit your Funny Bone
