A
cure for
man’s cancer,
a worthy cause
throughout November.
Men are dying too young,
Help men talk about their health,
We can’t afford to stay silent.
So, grow a mo*, and help save a bro**
*mo – moustache
** bro - brother

Weed Be Gone
A warning to guys who smoke weed
There’s a consequence that you don’t need
Research tests show the answer
Was testicular cancer
And that is bad mojo indeed
So guys if you must smoke the weed
Remember when you try to breed
If you love making shanks
You might be shooting blanks
With equipment that’s not up to speed
Don’t let this news be a buzzkill
Smoke ‘em it that is your will
But just be aware
You might lose the pair
To me that just outweighs the thrill
