I'm speaking to you from a jar

In an autopsy room, not too far.

When the new Highway Code

Said step in the road,

You have right of way, not that car.

...

My legs are now kept in a brace

My arm's in a different place

My kidney is transplanted in

A man who abused lots of gin.

...

Some bits are in an appliance

Donated to medical science.

My skeleton isn't much use

Apparently, everything's loose.

...

My skull is now used as a demo

To drivers who don't read the memo

Please get in a good safety mode

And abide by the new Highway Code!
