Ode To a Cotton Swab

I stuck a Q-tip up my nose to see what I would find Mother wasn't at home just then you know shes a bit of the meddling kind I couldn't do what I really like (mom said she read somewhere that it will make me go blind) Any way, I poked around and I probed around and spun it around a bit Then with a mighty push I shoved it in just to see how far up it would fit All of a sudden My life flashed, my brain screamed and blood flowed out of my nose like cheap draft beer the pain was so great my "jewels" shriveled and I shrieked like a little ***** Just before going to meet grandma mothers voice is all I could hear "how many times have I told you you twit. " "you blow your nose, Q-tips are made for your ear."
