A Little Dental Music

A little dental music
 Strings a-strumming
 Flutes a-trilling
 Numbing minds and calming nerves
 While steps away, the beast is drilling
 Muzak in the lobby
 Helps the patients to ignore
 The fact that writhing agony
 Waits right behind the door
 Kostelanetz, Hank Mancini
 Gordon Jenkins, Ferrante and Teicher
 Lo, the Mormon Tabernacle sings!
 The sounds of pain are muted
 By a thousand Living Strings
 A little dental music
 Your appointment's for eleven
 But you'll wait in here till noon
 To soothing strains of Andre Previn
 Next it's Mantovani
 After him you couldn't care
 You're in for brutal torture
 When it's your turn
 When it's your turn
 (Next)
 It's your turn, in the chair
