The New Waterboarding

The New Waterboarding The district attorney was seeking Volunteers for a forensic test To help in his case of a bad guy Who he said had drowned his wife Bess The volunteers had to be female And stand somewhere round five foot eight And if they weighed in the 140s The volunteers then would be great But then they would have to stick their head Into a toilet and flush For the bad guy was charged with the drowning His wife in a toilet bowls rush And the DA was trying to show that The death could not be suicide Which was what the bad guy was claiming But that it’s by his flush she died So what do you think was the outcome Of this very strange episode Do you think that you could drown yourself With the flush of your simple commode
