I took my yearly bath today,

Lots of dirt got soaked away.

Why I bother, I do not know,

But I bathed myself from head to toe.

I used a bar of smelly soap,

To smell a bit better what a hope.

When i tried to wash my hair,

My brush and comb stood up to stare.

My nails are in a terrible state,

Shall i cut them? No I'll wait.

And what about my dirty ears,

I haven't washed them for at least three years.

My teeth like stars come out only at night,

If I show them there will be a fright,

The talcom powder on the shelf,

Said touch me now and I'll kill myself.

You know you really shouldn't laugh,

It's very couragous to take a bath.

The feeling I've got is fear,

For I'll have to take another bath next year!
