Do you ever wonder, what it must think?

When in the bathroom, you make a stink

Does it cringe or does it start to sweat?

I’ve often wondered, but haven’t asked, just yet

After being neatly rolled with its fellow sheets

A human hand grabs and heads for a seat

Right then, does the toilet paper feel its defeat?

Or does it, instead, feel more replete?

After all, we are using it, for what it is meant

Though asked, I’m sure it would give its dissent

Stand on the roller, and proclaim to the crowd

Nothing I did here, is making me feel proud!

With its roll now depleted, its job is finished, so they say

Until Mother Nature calls, and we’re headed back its way

Here we go, when will it stop?
Yet, another dastardly caper

Seems someone has once again
Run off with the tissue paper

Empty rolls now fill the stall
Better check before you sit

Cause you know what comes next
You’ll be cursin’, quite a bit

The only suggestion to give you
Is always carry a roll in your purse

You’ll never be, without necessity
Keeps from making a bad moment worse

Always be prepared, you never know
Do it now, no, don’t you delay!

One guarantee, take it from me
It’ll surely keep the flies away!
