Long In the Tooth

I went to the Dentist to pull a tooth And patiently sat in the waiting booth. All the kids stared at my giant bucktooth; Needless to say they were very uncouth. My Dentist, who only worked on us youth, With all her might pulled out a real shark tooth. Honest, I’m not fooling; I’ll show you proof. It’s the size of a great whites’, that’s the truth. When I was done, I thought it’d be a goof To show it to my mom, whose name is Ruth. And don’t you know it she went through the roof, Just like when I called her, long in the tooth.
