The Lyrics

For some reason extrernal male catheters are called "Texas Catheters. Part of my job is to find the best patient care products at the best prices possible. I found a promising product line last week and sought to call peoples attention to it so they would Trial and Evaluate (T&E) it. Well I should have checked out exactly who was on that mailing list. In my email I said in a creative way that I could not determine if this new non latex version would be harder for patient care staff to put on than our present product. since "I didn't have the wherewithal to test it and needed input" Well this admin type took my message the wrong way.
There's a catheter from Texas
One wears externally
If masculine your sex is
Directs the flow of pee
Down a tube into a leg bag
Worn just above the knee
And your caretakers need not change
Your sheets so frequently.

Though they're not a high use item
I sought to T&E
Another vendor's product
That's cheaper and latex free.
So I sent around an email
Worded creatively.
Some white collar wanker read it
And excreted mason'ry.

'Twould be an understatement
To say he was appalled
At the way I voiced my fears
This cath prove harder to install
Not being a clinician
I could not make that call.
Nor try one on myself
For I have not the wherewithal.

When I learned of his reaction
I laughed til I shed tears
Offered to apologize,
Perhaps allay his fears.
"Say,"I'm searching for some insight",
"And not for volunteers"
But my boss says that to do so
Likely would end my career.

Anyone who's watched American politics lately knows that Texas produces not catheters, but enemas.

"And excreted mason'ry."; wonderful euphemism there PMS (aka Sheep Trick: wow, I never would have guessed ST was you!), lol. 555

Thanks Red Ant. I didn't want to post 3 sheep humping songs under my own name lest folks think me a pervert. Incidentally I took your advice and wrote one called "Happy With Heifers" I've yet to post it though. Still tweaking. Michael, sometimes an enema is beneficial :)
