The Public Restroom

The Public Restroom By Elton Camp When “Number One” demands our attention Then males have less of a problem to mention Because we are always able to quite safely stand While we care for the necessary matter at hand With females who are less conveniently plumbed To a much greater health risk they are succumbed Ladies, you might not be very happy if you meet The last person who it was that sat on that seat She might have been sick or even very nearly dead Who can know what horrible germs she has spread And while endlessly inside the restroom you delay, I’ll be finished in a couple of minutes & on my way
