The Water Engineer

Works in a treatment plant
Smells all, sees all imaginable
Not meaning to be blunt
But this path was unforeseeable

A water engineer deals with a life source
A liquid so precious, its scarcity brings inevitable death
With enlightenment there was now no remorse
Even if at times,the stench caused one to have to hold his breath

One day, his toilet sprung not one, but two leaks
Degree he had, but toilets he’d ne’er try to fix
DIY, DIY! He wanted to say,
Pay a plumber? No way, no way!

To Bunnings he went, the mantra “Lowest Prices are Just The Beginning”
“When I flush the valve doesn’t close properly”
Oh, so are you trying to say its overflowing?
Yes, what is the problem with that thingy?
It’s a cistern you dummy

Now what else is the matter?
After flushing, it just keeps on running,
The poo’s all gone, but the water keeps on coming
Ah, you need a new washer

The parts bought, the engineer exited
Bunnings guy knew what he was doing,
Every part was right, every part fitted,
Pride, the water engineer was feeling

Bunnings guy saved the day!
Pay a plumber? No way, no way!
