The Silent Hero

Ode to plumbers

The Silent Hero[1]

 

When bird songs wakes you up in the morning

But your bath tub drain is clogged

By your wife's hair ball

Your cluts husband tried to fix

The now pissing kitchen tap

Your basement ' now an interior pool

Cause the tank busted in the night

Who gonna dip his hand up to the elbow

In the s**t of an overflowing toilet 

To retrieve your wedding ring

In these moments of despair

Nothing to put back a smile on your lips

Like the butt crack of this silent hero

Here's the plumber to the rescue.....
