123 - Wee Part Three

I had a little accident

There may have been some wee

My trousers might be ruined

I'll need to look and see

It's a constant problem

Because I'm getting old

To add insult to injury

Outside it's pretty cold

If I leave to change my strides

There's a good chance they will freeze

And I'll be frozen solid

In urine, down to my knees

But I dare not stay sitting here

Because I am at work

Already I can sense the smell

I feel like such a jerk

I could always mask the stench

Spill hot coffee in my lap

But then there is a danger

Of boiling my old chap

So tell me which is better

Embarrassment or pain?

Because I guarantee

This'll definitely happen again
