Clive (the plug monster)

There is a monster that lives in my bath,

Well… sometimes he takes a sojourn to my sink

and has been known to holiday in the loo!

A greedy plug monster is he, scarfing down bath water and eating waste matter,

he is not discerning and will take what you offer.

Soap and bubbles, stubble and hair, he belches angrily.

He swirls the water this way and that

controlling the currents of my lovely warm bath.

Ladies and gentlemen, I beg you, implore.

Give credence to the plug monster, lest you not know that he’s there.

On taking your ablutions beware for he lurks, .. waiting… beware.

◄ Who says it's a subsitute?
