The Pill

It was the pill the doctor had said so
To take it near the toilet and away you’ll go
So I sat with pill in  my hand
With a glass of water at my ready command

So I took it and there was a gurgling sound
As I ran a away to the toilet bound
And I sat on the throne for 20 minutes flat
Whilst playing Annie Laurie on the organ so loudly at that

There was some painting around the WC
That took a while to clean well you see
So I rang the doctor who enquired from me
Had his mother’s Austrian recipe worked so beautifully.
