They say it’s called sciatica, a
pain that causes twinges
It sometime starts above your bum
and down your leg impinges
They claim it’s caused by many
things, like wearing heels and
tottering
Or working in the garden, as
around the weeds you’re pottering
But, then it goes and, just like
that, the pain will disappear
But, don’t be overconfident, it can
come back, I fear
I know the pain is terrible, believe
me it’s no joke
Like giving birth someone told
me, how’d I know? I’m a bloke!
