Gesundheit

Got some friends from across the sea
Who yell gesundheit every time they sneeze
A German word for health
And for excusing oneself
For getting gunk on each bystander's chemise

I know a girl who pees//every time she sneeze//Gets on her hose//and also those//things hanging to her knees! (Uh Oh...just got clobbered by a certain someone peeking over my shoulder as I wrote this:-)
