I’ve got a looth tooth that wigglth and jigglth and wrigglth. I move it around but it never comth out of my mouth. I pull it, I yank it, I twirl it, I thpank it, but it jutht never theems to want to come out of ith houth.

I’d call the Tooth Fairy, but she’th kinda thcary, Tho I thtill cannot theem to be free of thith wiggly looth tooth, that to tell you the truth, ith makin’ a thap outa me.

I’m going to give it one thuper thtrong yank, cuth I really could uthe thome money. Great Scott! It’s out! At last, it’s out! But now I’m talking funny.
