There once was a teen named Dean 

Dreamed of becoming a Merchant Marine 

But they said 'You're too dirty

Come back when you're 30

So you're able to use the latrine'

Dean said 'Don't know what they mean

A Merchant Marine don't use a latrine

Since they spend time in the water 

I think that they oughta 

Use Mr Clean to get clean, best I've seen'

His Mom informed Dean of something urgent

She said 'I realize our views are divergent

Don't use Mr Clean

On a Merchant Marine 

Mr Clean's a liquid detergent!'
