I have poison ivy up the wahzoo
And, no- wahzoo is not code word for something taboo
All I mean is its uncomfortable and it looks really bad
I was told it would scare my man off (by my dad)
I guess it looks gross, it’s red and sort of oozing
And the paleness of my skin makes it even more bamboozling
My friend told me I look like I got hit by a truck
That was covered in poison ivy- well shucks.
All I did was some landscaping work
Freeing rose bushes covered in viney plant jerks
The money I made from this gig seemed okay
But it wasn't even enough to cover my co-pay
The doctor insisted I take steroids galore
If I didn’t I’d end up in the hospital for sure
Until then I didn’t think it was such a big deal
But it does impact the way I look and feel
So if you have any sympathy to spare
Send some in my direction- it travels through the air
And if you think that it is unglamorous to be you
Just be happy you don’t have poison ivy up the wahzoo
