The Bothersome Family That Lives in Your Ears

Friday, November 25, 2011

There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
They itch and they tickle and prey on your fears.
They bother and chatter and drive you to tears.
That bothersome family that lives in your ears.

There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
They build great big dams of wax, and it appears
They always have pizza for every New Year's.
That bothersome family that lives in your ears.



There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
They drink lots of soda and frothy root beers.
The pitch of their singing will bring you to tears.
They're the bothersome family that lives in your ears.

There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
They have lots of siblings and odious peers.
Their radio blasting has gone on for years.
They're a bothersome family that lives in your ears.


There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
There's a tall one who drives and a short one who steers.
There's thin ones up front and there's fat in the rears.
It's the bothersome family that lives in your ears.

There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
They live off the cuff and have lofty careers.
They're known to play games and respond with loud cheers.
The bothersome family that lives in your ears.


There's a bothersome family that lives in your ears.
Their numbers are fading.  They'll soon disappear.
They'll long be remembered and their extinction nears,
As the bothersome family that lived in your ears.

The Family That Lives Between Your Toes



There's a family that lives between your toes.
The origin of them nobody knows.
They go around wearing the funniest clothes.
The family that lives between your toes.
                                                     

There's a family that lives between your toes.
They always move in right under your nose.
The age of the children is hard to suppose
Of the family that lives between your toes.



There's a family that lives between your toes.
They live on green popcorn and watch fungus shows.
They have a strange relative that comes and goes
From the family that lives between your toes.

There's a family that lives between your toes,
And when you get married, so the story goes,
Your loved one is expected to also propose
To the family that lives between your toes.



There's a family that lives between your toes.
They write silly poetry and funny prose.
You can hear them scream when you run through the hose.
The family that lives between your toes.


There's a family that lives between your toes,
And when you are dead and your body arose,
The life of this family comes to a close.
The family that lived between your toes.
