Thread Name: Lyr Req: Roll On, Deodorant
Subject: Lyr Add: ROLL ON (DEODORANT)
here's the version I committed in '93:

ROLL ON

From dark hairy pits in the worst parts of town,
To genteelly shaved ones in elegant gown;
No matter who owns 'em, there sweat glands abound,
So roll on, deodorant, roll on.

Roll on, deodorant, roll on,
Roll on, deodorant, roll on,
Your power is bidding our BO begone,
So roll on, deodorant, roll on.

Exuberant exercise, laboring hard,
Or even just sunning out in the back yard,
Any sweat's held in abysmal regard,
So roll on, deodorant, roll on.

Horses they sweat, so the old saying goes,
While men do perspire, but a lady just glows;
Whatever you call it, 'twill ruin your clothes,
So roll on, deodorant, roll on.

Society sanctions a lot of weird smells,
And perfume and aftershave certainly sells,
But nature's own fragrance it instantly quells,
So roll on, deodorant, roll on.
