I'm a lonely little toothbrush,
owned by a lazy slob.
He hardly ever uses me;
I rarely get inside his gob.
I sit upon his bathroom shelf,
all dusty and unused.
It really is a terrible fate,
to be a toothbrush, so abused.
I'm full of germs and horrid bugs;
he never rinses me at all.
The only time he ever cleaned me
was when his girl friend came to call.
To be quite frank, that wasn't often,
(she lived in Brighton, way down south)
She'd said "Your breath is rank and awful,
when I kiss you on the mouth"
That is why the romance ended,
as she couldn't stand the smell.
Meanwhile, I'm wasted and unwanted,
confined to living toothbrush hell.
