Jellyfish Sting Remedy
Now, you may wonder why I urinate on my toes
But I know the cure when thrust in pain’s throes
After bare footing on a beach of golden sand
And accidentally treading on a jellyfish’s band.
The sting is sharp and the pain so very intense
You hop around with one foot a swollen immense
You want relief as fast as you can get it
Pull down your pants and start to wet it.
I know this sounds gross and a little perverse
The longer you wait, the pain just grows worse
The scientific reasons I cannot explain
But the chemistry of urine relieves jellyfish pain.
How the first person figured this out, I haven’t got a clue
And if you are too modest, perhaps I’ll urinate on you
Don’t you worry; I’ll hold and aim my own hose
Just next time on the beach, put shoes on your toes.
