The Sweat Below
It begins with a trinkle of sweat
The end of the day will come with regret
You should have spent that extra cash
Now you walk painfully, but manly with a terrible rash
I've had it before, I call it the Devil's Rain
The sweat below is causing the pain
Chafing is not a funny matter to bring up
But I will make it funny with minimum talent and a lot of luck
This pain will make you walk with a noticeable limp
Just come clean that you have it and not be whimp
Now it has you painful and red
You could be moving, you sit down instead
If I didn't know the ailment, I would offer you a cane
It is the sweat below causing the pain
The way you walk it is as though you hurt your toe
You tell me the specifics, more info than I wanted to know
I tell you been there, done that
You are not the first to wipe your feet at that doormat
Just be careful how you walk, you might create muscle strain
My diagnosis is it's the sweat below causing the pain
Just as you think you have it under control
Never, ever, underestimate the sweat below
Now I keep diaper rash cream at home and work
At Dyn Corp, chafing prevention trainig is not one of the very few perks
From now on til doom's day you will be on chafing patrol
You reccommend desicant to absorb the sweat below
