Aaarrhhh!
You say it's not working again, dear
Curse that piece of metal junk,
it only works on Monday, Wednesday and Friday
Part-time dishwashing machine ...
and half of the time when it do work, it only get the dishes half-clean
It decided to go on labor strike,
two months after the warranty expired
Go figure ...
it need to be put on the back of a salvage truck,
with a sign saying: Lazy machine for hire
Don't know why the missus so loves you
If I had three wishes, here's what I'd do ---
number one:
permanently pull your plug
number two:
cover you in the garage with a mechanic's rug
number three:
sell your parts without so much as a shrug
Then knowing that I put you down, I'd be satisfied
with having to wash and rinse my own drinking mug
I hate your nuts and bolts ...
if it was up to me, this would be murder she wrote
But luckily for you, my wife doesn't feel that way,
and you get to have an execution stay
Aaarrhhh!
You also get to rattle and shake for another day
Well, guess it's time to call a repairman,
then call the manufacturer and get an extended warranty plan
The meal was over
And with apprehension
I took my plate to the kitchen
Where I looked at the devastation
Caused by its preparation.
Who could guess
That a cook could make such a mess.
Pots and pans were everywhere
Causing a washing despair
Especially as I was the one
To get it done.
It would have been easier
With a dishwashing machine
But since last week it is a has-been
Just when I need it most
It gave up the ghost.
To add to my dismay
The water’s cold
Because we were told
They’re cutting the power today.
Now the grease won’t budge
It’s a sticky sludge
That won’t go down the drain
And remains everywhere.
I can’t wait to go to heaven
And see a sign
No food or wine
Beyond this gate.
