Oops. This one was originally from around February 2019, and inspired by a Massfilc list discussion of hydrogen peroxide where I was the only one who thought to *look up* the point in question... but these lyrics didn't actually get finished until tonight, when Current Events intervened and Emily Lewis giggled at the thought of it in the Balticon Zoom room. I repeat, oops.
Poison Control, ttto Border Patrol (Sanders/Alexander).
CHORUS
Lock up the cleaners, and the detergents too.
Hide soap and solvent, grease removers, polishers and glue.
The work we do here new parents will extol--
We are the children's first defense -- we're the poison control!
My mother used the service first, a girl of seventeen.
I was her first and child locks were not yet a thing she'd seen.
I learned to crawl quite quickly and I'd hide from her, although
Underneath the sink, that was my favorite place to go!
CHORUS
That home is just a memory -- I moved out soon enough.
I think I own three cats, but really they own all my stuff.
And when I'm standing in the bathroom all they want to see
Is whether my prescriptions contain treats enough for three!
CHORUS
My new job started yesterday -- I know the dangers now.
I'll spread the word of staying safe and healthy -- this I vow.
I will discourage disinfecting inside of your veins.
Just stay home, wear a mask, and you can avoid all those pains!
