Dentures

My doc was out of town the day
I needed dentures made
So I looked upon the yellow pages
down the list my fingers played
I came upon a captive name
and gave the man a call
I asked if he was busy
where, he replied "no, not at all!"
That should have been a clue I guess
But in my haste I took no care.
Drove to a shady part of town
and timidly climbed in his chair.
He quickly took impressions
and like magic, in his hand
a perfect set of chompers
They couldn't be more grand!
Then something wierd was happening
In shock I realized
The teeth were eating me alive!
Like being vaporized!
I should have been more diligent
I should not have ventured here!
If I had only recognized the name
of DR. LANGOLIER!
