Guess the missing words in the following poem about the human body.
Where can a man buy a for his knee,
Or the key to a of his hair?
Can his eyes be called an academy
Because there are there?
Is the of your head where jewels are found?
Who travels the of your nose?
If you wanted to shingle the of your mouth,
Would you use the on your toes?
Can you sit in the shade of the of your hand,
Or beat on the of your ear?
Can the in your leg eat the off your toe?
Then why not grow corn on the ear?
Can the in your elbow be sent to jail?
If so, just what did he do?
How can you sharpen your shoulder ?
I'll be darned if I know - do you?
