Do you ever remember your face itching so much? I don’t. But put on a face mask, and that’s all I think about. Or don’t think and catch myself in the act. Charlie, too.
I Do
Wash my hands? Sure, OK
Ten times a day? OK, OK
No need to ask, I wear a mask
And gloves, depending on the task
But if there’s a place
Upon my face
That I gotta itch, I do
Sure, I’ll cough into my arm
Won’t do my flannel any harm
And if we stand six feet apart
That’s not about to break my heart
I take precaution,
Same as you,
But if I gotta itch, I do
I know it isn’t recommended
Now that all is so upended
Oh, they act like it’s a crime
To scratch your nose from time to time
I still do it
Out of habit
Just did it again, Dag Nabbit!
I putter ‘round the house all day
And try to stay out of the way
And when the house gets to my head
Go out and putter in the shed
I’ll sit among
My tools and stew
And if I gotta itch, I do
That’s it for now. Stay safe and catch you on the flip side!
