The Anti-Shrill Pill

THE ANTI-SHRILL PILL

A girl who was terribly shrill
Was presented with quite a large bill!
She screamed fit to bust,
And blasphemed and cussed
Till somebody popped her a pill.

PINK TIPPED

Not the nails of a lady who's heavily into chores!
What on earth could she possibly do with such very dainty paws?
She couldn't do any gardening; she couldn't wash the clothes.
All she could  do in comfort is sit around and pose!
She couldn't play touch-football or make castles in the sand,
And peeling the potatoes would be positively banned!
I agree they're rather pretty, with their delicate pink bows,
But 'Handsome is as handsome does' as everybody knows.

LOL, Brenda.
My voice could really use that shrill pill. It is just dreadful, high and squeaky.
As for the dainty fingernails, they're actually very strong. I used to have my nails done (just clear, with white tips) because mine break so often, and so easily, but I got tired of the whole process. So now I'm back to having broken fingernails all the time.
