Abigail Ory Tooth Song
Have you any teeth left,
Have you any grit?
Gritting teeth is bad but facts won't
Stop me from doing it
[Chorus]
When I get old and moldy
My teeth will be
The very last part of me
To rot away
Hey
Do you need a filling,
Do you need fifteen?
My dentist forgot the lidocaine
But not my cavities
[Chorus]
When I get old and moldy
My teeth will be
The very last part of me
To rot away
Hey, it's worth the pain
[Bridge]
To get them drilled and get them filled
With porcelain and gilded
Crowns set atop
Molars like royalty
My dentist doesn't like me
Because
I think they're neat
Have you any teeth left,
Have you any grit?
Gritting teeth is bad but facts won't
Stop me from doing it
[Chorus]
When I get old and moldy
My teeth will be
The very last part of me
To rot away
Hey, it's worth the pain
[Chorus]
When I get old and lonely
At least my teeth
Will always have been there for me
Every day
Hey, despite the pain
Oooh x4
