        BATHROOM CLEANER
I tried the orange bathroom cleaner it smells fine,
The bathroom sparkled clean, a little fetish of mine,
The sink and the taps were bright, the toilet too,
But it was disconcerting to see the colour in the loo.

Windows cleaned, sides wiped down, mirror all bright,
But looking in the loo to me was a really awful sight,
A yellowy orange tinge in the water standing there,
Although there was a clean smell of orange everywhere.

I thought, if visitors goes in what ever will they think!
Everywhere clean and sparkling, a lovely clean sink,
But someone forgot to flush, this I really could not allow,
But I only have orange cleaner so what can I do right now.

I like the disinfectant to stand to do it’s work quite well,
So next time I buy cleaner, Orange pine-sol they’ll not sell,
I’ll get one that’s lavender or cloudy white that will be fine
Never again buy orange that makes me want to simply pine.
