A Shorts Story
I remember an old employee who really wasn't the bestÂ
Then one day that employee stepped on a hornets nest
Those angry hornets flew straight up his shorts
Those hornets explored there with full forceÂ
And as those hornets made their advanceÂ
That poor little guy learned how to dance
He danced up and down that quiet slow streetÂ
He danced even though there was no beat
He didn't need a guitar or someone to play a pianoÂ
To start singing out loud In high pitch sopranoÂ
He was a slow worker before this sting operationÂ
But I learned all he needed was just some motivationÂ
He called me and said he got stung by a hundred bees
I said well get to the ER immediately please
Then he said well maybe not a hundred, maybe it was 20
I thought well you still need Benadryl that is still plentyÂ
I noticed as he walked that he waddled quite a bit
And right after this incident this poor guy quit
I had sympathy for him without a doubtÂ
But I want you to know I didn't pull those stingers outÂ
