Duct Tape Will Fix Most AnythingA Poem by Elton CampThe most versatile product on the market.Duct Tape Will Fix Most Anything By Elton Camp It’s one of the most versatile products I’ve seen Duct tape, whether it’s gray, brown or even green Any cracked tiles you don’t really need to replace A bit of sticky tape will hold them right in place Is your radiator hose getting about ready to burst? It won’t, as long as you wrap it with duct tape first And if you’ve got a slit in your car’s vinyl seat A piece of duct tape will close it up ever so neat If your throw rugs are always trying to scoot around Duct tape the bottom to keep them were they’re found It will hold electric extension cords down to the floor So that you can walk and not trip over them any more It’ll also hold electric wires together after a splice Wider than electrical tape so that it work so nice If the rearview mirror should try to drop from the car, Duct tape will keep it from drooping down quite so far If your brother’s visiting child is noisy as well as cute It can work quite well to put the odious brat on mute An envelope it will seal up very secure and tight In case the taste of glue isn’t exactly your delight It will easily close up a partial bag of potato chips In case the bag isn’t one of the type that zips If the batteries in the TV remote control pop out, Duct tape will safely hold them in without a doubt And anytime that your shoe laces happen to break Just keep your shoes fastened with some duct tape If the dryer should leave some lint on your clothes, Don’t need a brush, duct tape works better than those If your old car has, in spots, completely rusted through Then some pieces of duct is all you need to make do If the heel of your sock has grown a lot too thin, Duct tape will make it just like new once again If suspicions of your wife’s trust you have felt Then it will make an emergency chastity belt But one thing the manufacturer truly does feel Is that any leaking duct work it won’t much seal
