A TRIP TO THE DENTIST

entry picture

(A play for two players. This may not make too much sense without the audio)

 

“You keep up with the brushing,

At least twice a day?

And have you done your flossin?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“You keep good teeth“, he said to me

“But your gums recede.

How hard is your toothbrush?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“You look well tanned for wintertime;

Have you been away?

“Wergly wergly wergly werg”

“Malta, do you say?”

 

“We went there two years ago

(Lower left 3, please)

Any problems bitin?”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“Wergly wergly wergly werg”

“That happens, I’m afraid;

More so in your later years.”

“Wergly wergly werg”

 

“So all OK I’m pleased to say”

“No treatment?”  “No, that’s that.

See you next in six months time;

Look forward to our chat”.

Very funny John. I have my teeth checked about every 20 year or so, so I can really relate to this.

It never occurred to me that their mutterings were incomprehensible, MC. I can barely understand what I’m saying myself when I’ve a mouthful of fingers and suckers and probes.

Don't you just love it when they mutter through that face mask that
looms over your staring eyes. You do your best to understand
what is being said, straining every faculty to accommodate their
words - only to realise that they are directed to their assistant
lurking out of sight just behind your other shoulder!?

Lol a vivid picture of what most of us experience when we're trapped in the dentist chair.
On my last checkup I apologised cos I hadn't brushed my teeth immediately before going in. The dentist laughed. She had one family with kids who all shared one toothbrush. Another patient who only brushed his teeth once a year, the day before he came to see her. Not you by any chance John?

You have to feel sorry for them, in spite of their big fat salaries!

Agree with Brian.
Keep 'em as long as possible, JC. Avoid those words we hear on the
tube here in town: Mind the gap! ?

John's taking over from Donald
We've got a new ruler of the world
I hear all the crowd yelling "Go John"
Don's done his dash, been impearled ?

Now here's an idea for you John
The Wergly could replace GBP
As initiator of this new currency
You could be hailed as Brexit rescuer, and MP

Imagine what you could do in your Parliament
Knock a bit of sense in them chimps
Show 'em a Coopey-managed government
Tell 'em to stop being wimps

Gosh John how the hell my mind travels
From your chat with the dentist, me asking price
Then suddenly Wergly replaces GBP
And you become MP, roll the dice

The mind boggles...?
