What Happens to the Thousands of Naked Lady Ballpoint Pens
Manufactured Every Day?

No high school sophomore ever grew up without
A naked lady plastic ballpoint pen -
Those furtive giggles in geometry class
Were not about theorems all risqué

After the FFA trip to the rodeo
Or the band trip to sunny Galveston
A pretty lady with a 1940s do
Loses her swimsuit over and over again

Upend the pen, and she’s nekkid in the sun -
Whoever thought writing could be such fun!
