Teeth! You find them everywhere!

On mountaintops! And in the air!

And if you care to poke around,

You’ll even find them underground.

You'll find them east, west, north, and south

You'll find them in a lion's mouth.

"They come in handy when you chew,"

says Mr. Donald Driscoll Drew.

''That's why my family grew a few."

"Teeth come in handy when you speak,"

says news broadcaster Quincy Queek.

''Without my teeth I'd talk like ducks,

and only broadcast quacks and klucks."

“Clams have no teeth,” says Pam the clam.

“I cannot eat hot dogs or ham.”

“No teeth at all,” says Pam the clam.

“I cannot eat roast leg of lamb.

Or peanuts! Pizzas! Popcorn! SPAM!

Not even huckleberry jam!”

“I have no teeth,” says Hilda Hen.

“But women do. And so do men.”

“So I have happy news for you.

You will grow two sets! Set one. Set two.”

“You will lose set number one.

And when you do, it’s not much fun.”

“But then you’ll grow set number two!”

32 teeth, and all brand-new.

16 downstairs, and 16 more upstairs on the upper floor.

And when you get your second set,

THAT’S ALL THE TEETH YOU’LL EVER GET!”

SO… don’t chew down trees like beavers do.

If you try, you’ll lose set number two!

Don’t gobble junk like Billy Billings.

They say his teeth have fifty fillings!

They sure are handy when you smile.

So keep your teeth around awhile.
