A Mummy's Life

When they hoke out your brain through your nose with a hook,

Seal your innards in canopic jars,

And you feel like a smoothie that's been overshook,

They wall you in, and wall out the bars...

When they zap you to calibrate X-ray machines,

A cadaver of high radiation!

I'm not really sure what the half of it means,

If you ask me it's discrimination!

When you teach people things they don't hear every day

Don't expect in the sunshine to bask.

It's a thankless aul' job in more than one way

And quite frankly ah cannae be ahrssed.

A mummy sighs in resignation at yet another setback
