The Dishwasher
Tom the Dishwasher
Hand wash each time
Place in drainboard,
Always forget the gloves,
Hands get greasy, yuck, slime!
Drainboard sits on my
Electric dishwasher,
Used once in two years,
Just what is packed,
Between my ears?
Maybe cause the paper plates
and plastic utensils
Didn't fare so well,
Oh, you know how weird
Is Tom Bell
Should'a put a pinball
Machine, in that slot,
Play the Who's Tommy,
Bet I'd play real hot!
The one time I used,
sometime last year,
Still await unloading...
Is that laughter I hear?
Now if I was normal,
I'd be quite dull,
But never worry,
My brain is void and null!
