No Tattoo Please (Monotetra)

This is just a little warning
To all those who're tattoo wearing,
If your loved one is there dying
No blood giving, no blood giving.

Because of scare of Tetanus
The needles and ink they mistrust,
They won't take chances to give us,
Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss.

So now that tattoo's all the craze
Half of the youths have arms ablaze,
No blood they'll give so don't be fazed,
Or be amazed, or be amazed.

If you're planning tattoo to take
Life's blood's important, please forsake,
It's a good sacrifice to make,
For goodness sake, for goodness sake.

I wish someone had let this out
Told it to people all about,
Blood's needed East, West, North and South,
STAY CLEAN, I shout, STAY CLEAN, I shout.
