Cellino and Barnes*

Did you ever wake up with
A tune in your head
That, despite your best efforts,
You just cannot shed?

Well, it’s happened to me
And I really can’t take it
For, try as I might,
I just can’t seem to shake it.

The worst of it is,
It’s a jingle, you see,
And it’s from a commercial
I’ve seen on TV.

Two lawyers* on screen
Vow to get you big bucks
If you’re injured by taxis
Or autos or trucks.

Their ditty is catchy –
No need for debates –
And their phone number’s 800
Followed by 8’s.

They seem like nice guys
So I hate to complain
But I wish that their song
Would bail out of my brain!
