The Bug Zapper

Swing like a tennis pro
Swoosh as badminton flow
Dance and twril as you whirl
The magic bug zapper racket
See a bug I fling to attack it
Keep that button down
Brave electric  courrent sound
Die little insect die
Goodbye you nasty fly
Mosquito a crisp bye bye
No wasp or mean bee
Better never threaten me
If I hear a buzzing sound
Now I can hold my ground
Armed with my bug zapper in hand
I am in command, Mother Nature understands
Slap a roach on the wall
Poor spider no place to crawl
Any bug I see
Sting them before they sting me
To the strong the world belongs
Total power gives you calm
Tiny vermin a slap a pat
A tush moving swoosh
A graceful wave a playful swing
In my hand my bug zapper I cling
Slight twist of the wrist bugs burn crisp
Now my space a bliss
Gone all tiny pest
Bug zapper I could kiss
As burnt lip and fringe hair confess

lol Fritz, keep the zapper for the bugs and not to whack yourself in the face over your success at eliminating these pesky critters. sure made me smile as our friend has one of these and it looks like a tennis racquet - next stop will be Wimbledon!
