Poopyjoke writer...
Dear Gene Weingarten will you print my gag
It's a wee bit vulgar, not for New York Mag
It's based on the style of a man named Smith
And I want some ink so I have to be a poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer
It's a dirty job writing dirty jokes
And it takes its toll on my loving folks
My kids pretend they never heard of me
When their teachers ask if they're kin to that poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer...
I hold advanced degrees, I'm in Mensa too
I'm an expert on Japanese haiku
I could write an opera but to get in Style
I just dumb it down and I'm instantly a poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer
The Czar really likes it when you show bad taste
So I crank out jokes about human waste
If it's fecal matter I just send it in
And it gets me ink so I guess that I'm a poopyjoke writer
A poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer - poopyjoke writer
Poopyjoke writer - poopyjoke writer
