Jennifer and the Drain

There once was a girl named Jennifer
Who had a really cool name
But something was wrong in her life
It was that stopped-up drain

It got clogged and did stink
It stunk even more than you think
And the water got all over the floor
So Jennifer couldn't clean the floor anymore

She got out her plunger
And she got out her degreaser
She did not care what it would take
An un-clogged drain that night she would make

She plunged and she plunged
But with each forced lunge
The drain got madder and madder
And spit its stopped-up water at her

So she covered her shoes with bags of plastic
Even the drain thought the measure was drastic
Then with even greater ardor
She plunged the drain even harder

"I'll plunge you by day
"And I'll plunge you by night
"Whatever you throw my way
"I'll not give up this drainage fight

So did the tired Jen cry
"I'll unstop you even if I die
So she poured the degreaser down the drain
While outside it began to rain

Finally with a last massive effort
She plunged the blockage made of dirt
And the water went down
Without a frown

Jen had won against the drain
And so this day I proclaim
That from now until the last day
Today is Jennifer Beat The Drain Day!!!!

Penned by my hand on the 22nd of Valnuary, in the year 246 AF.
