Well I'll tell you this story, One well burned in mind<br />
Not even Alziemers could leave this behind<br />
The story is true and all that is stated<br />
A form of small torture one very ill fated<br />
<br />
On a typical day of a typical morn<br />
My Mother, your Grandmother was on her chore<br />
Fat back and Bacon was the 70's way<br />
And so were heart attacks back in them days<br />
<br />
With bacon complete and stacked oh so neat<br />
it was time for the eggs and in they went<br />
with a bath of bacon grease ready and hot<br />
no need for turning, just a splash on the top<br />
<br />
One little mistake from a busy distraction<br />
One splash too many for this grave infraction<br />
Over the top<br />
Out of the pan<br />
Onto the burner <br />
And then came fire<br />
With one final crash<br />
<br />
There arose such a flame it was out of control<br />
rising to the ceiling with it's dark black soul<br />
<br />
Fire alarm You say? I think NOT!<br />
Hysterical screaming is all we GOT!<br />
We fled from our bed and into the hall<br />
We stopped in our tracks to see such a sight<br />
we could not move we had such fright<br />
<br />
BILL BILL BILL the wailing continued<br />
Even over the shower the sound went in you<br />
In a rush to see what the screech was about<br />
He moved quick, even nearly fell out<br />
<br />
To the kitchen he went without even thinking<br />
All he knew was his dansel was screaming<br />
He arrived at the kitchen, grease on a tear<br />
Three kids brightly staring, hey what's that there?<br />
<br />
Wiggly jiggly it it moved all around <br />
Flippity Flop it made such a sound<br />
Back in the 70's unlike today<br />
it wasn't polite but just to say, "Hey something's going on down there"<br />
<br />
Was it the fire or his eggs that caused his reaction<br />
Only he knows what put him in action<br />
He reached for a glass and was filling the water<br />
When mother struck quick and saw a GREAT matter<br />
Oh my, this will cause such a splatter<br />
<br />
Was it the fire or down there that caused her reaction<br />
Only she knows what put her in action<br />
Selfish or not she pulled from the cupboard<br />
Some white powdered soda that created a smother<br />
Out went the fire with Bill standing ready<br />
Fresh water in glass and all watching steady<br />
<br />
After the fire, all was well<br />
except three kids whose jaws had fell<br />
<br />
BILL! Jeanne shout out, You're Naked!!! <br />
Oh what truth she just spout<br />
<br />
With a quick little Shutter <br />
He moved his bare ass<br />
He moved it real fast<br />
He shot like a bull and left all a flutter<br />
Flippity Flop, Flippity Flop, as the sound turned down<br />
<br />
Jeanne, My mother, your grandmother turned with a grin<br />
she stated quite nicely and very politely<br />
Go get dressed and I'll get your breakfast.<br />
Wheaties is was with Bruce Jenner our Champion.<br />
<br />
With Man Hood in tact, we all must exclaim<br />
that my mother, your grandmother saved my father, your grandfather<br />
from a lifetime of shame by smothering that fire and protecting Down There.<br />
<br />
