HAZMAT WATERBED

HAZMAT WATERBED

 

We found that we couldn’t abide

With fumes coming from inside…

Our fine water bed

Made us sick in the head,

None other than formaldehyde!

The “fall-apart-ticle board”

In the trough where water tubes moored…

Was put together with glue

That when wet, would spew

Formaldehyde fumes therein stored.

It took us a while to figure

This caused our illness’ rigor…

Replaced with plywood,

The chip board no good,

Less fumes returned our vigor!
