Swallowed a Bug

There once was a man who swallowed a bug
Put his hand in his mouth and started to tug
He hemmed and he hawed
Even pulled out a saw
Now he smiles with only one tooth on his mug

You may have swallowed a bug... But you can't get rid of it with a tug... For as things go... Say it isn't so... Yes, it's the limerick bug!
