Needle In The Eye And other Fun Things

I disclose that I
Have regular appointments
For a needle in my eye

A thing I dread 
And I'm afraid of most
Is when I see that Javelin
Getting close

It hurts so much
I want to die
And like a little girl
I cry out  NO sob and cry

Don't move the nurse said
As she tied me to the bed
Ouch and have you ever had a needle in your eye
Is what in reply I said

The strange thing is
Afterwards, my vision is blurry
I cannot see
What have these evil torturers done to me?

The consultant once said
carrots are good for your eyes
Not if they're stuck in them
I replied 

I have never heard or seen
Anyone laugh so much
He spilled his coffee cup
Upon his crutch

I'm sure those pretty nurses
So sweet
Are wolves disguised as sheep
Boy do they push the damn needle
Deep

I used to play the piano
And loved to read
But now I'm getting on
And out to seed

I'd love to have my sentence of terror
And execution reprieved
I begged and pleaded as the clock ticked
But sadly I didn't succeed

Oh isn't life so much fun? 
I'm a nervous wreck
Before the procedure 
Has Begun
Never trust a pretty nurse
Who smiles at you
Or you may be
A poor victim too
