Our Keith has bad teeth
They used to be pearlers
So bright and so white
Now they’re all colours
And they do smell of shite
They’re stumpy and broken
Crooked and odd
Neglected and tartered
Like a lawn gone to sod
Keith failed to brush
Or use his mouthwash
No polishing ever
He never used floss
So now he regrets
His lack of hygiene
He would love nice teeth
The smile and the sheen
So here is the moral
The point of your ventures
Keep your teeth clean
Or else you’ll have dentures
