Very good writing - thanks! Reminds me of the song we sang in grade school (to the tune of the TV song “Branded”)
Stranded
Stuck on the bathroom bowl.
What do you do when your stranded,
and there's nowhere to go?
You must wipe with your hand
to prove you're a man-
Stranded.
The younger sister of one of my buddies was a tom-boy and always wanted to hang out with the guys. A few days after hearing that ditty, she proudly exclaimed to all that she had wiped with her hand!
Heh, like I told someone else, it is the honest truth with only one exaggeration: the hand dryer did put out a little more air than Juliet’s shallow breaths!
But only a little...:)
I laughed when I read “Stranded” because it made me remember singing that, because it was a little different, and I had not thought of it in many years...
Stranded!
Stranded on a toilet bowl
What do you do when you’re stranded
Without any roll?
For the rest of your life
You will not be a man
So be a man!
And wipe with your hand!
Sooooooooo
Stranded!
Stranded on a toilet bowl
What will you do when you’re stranded
And you don’t have a roll?
(Gave me flashbacks, it did!)
