The severe pain of a visit to the dentist.

[User269]

Sat in the waiting room. Driven to the brink of my pain threshold by the excruciatingly awful Sky Radio, broadcasting songs, from which I offer the following inane lines (in blue), connected by my involuntary musings;


I will always love you even though I don’t know what love is,

but at least we’ll always be together

although I’m not sure how,

given that we were torn apart by our love,

and no wonder you have trouble sleeping and can’t make it through the night,

what d’you expect

given that the sun is always shining?

And the fact that it’s raining in your heart,

might explain the never ending heartache.

If only I could show you what love means

then I could always love you (even though I don’t know what love is)

and stop repeating myself, unlike our love, which apparently

will last forever.

Those pop songs have lyrics? Blimey.

It's bad enough having toothache without Muzak too. I'd ask for it to be switched off

Ooh, is it guess that tune night?

I don't recognize any of them

At least they weren't showing a film:

On my last visit to the dentist my Hygienist had her laptop playing music from some sort of internet service or radio thing. I was impressed enough that I even asked her about it. I think I was lucky that she had musical taste that I liked. Not sure how I would have liked something like Marilyn Manson or some extreme forms of metal while I was getting my teefs cleaned.

Not as painful as it is when you get the bill at the end

Ain't that the truth!!

My dentist has a TV on the ceiling, normally has deal or no deal on (as I go late afternoon)! But I never seem to get to see the end!

Unfinished Sweet by Alice Cooper from the album Billion Dollar Babies would be a good dentist waiting room song.

Not so much Muzak more Muse-ache.

Imagine working in a factory and having to listen to the same songs 5 times a day. I've been there in the past,you can't escape it,you're stuck at a machine for example with the speaker above spewing out the same Robbie Williams crap(this was 15 years ago by the way) along with the same crap adverts! Oh and you have a clock on the wall telling you how many hours to go before you can escape it!
