Tide Pod Challenge

The youth of today
Have it all going on
With the, pardon me brother
But could you pass me that pod

People say that they're cray
Are sure that they're mad
When they foam at the mouth
But it's nothing like that

They're just trying their best
To clean up their act
With nothing to Gain
In their lame atempt

As challenges go
This time the Tides turned
There's no way to know
When it comes to the unlearned

When I was a child
Moms washed our mouths out with soap
With no earthly idea
How far that feat would go

Feel free to join in the fun
On this challenge brand new
If you're young and you're dumb
You too can chew on a pod or two

They drool and they dribble
Over the soap in the middle
With both the challenge and mind
Being that of the simple

With every challenge of course
It'll come out in the wash
Is this pure genius at work
I clearly think not

If it's all in clean fun
Can it really be wrong
In the meantime would you mind
Passing that pod
