In the morning after exercise he noticed that

significant pain had moved up his knee cap,

from what the physician called a mildly arthritic flap

and the slightly torn meniscus he could hardly tap

to the muscles holding tightly to ligaments and tendons and all that,

and then heard the Motown muscles crying in rap,

“Why ya wan’ a work us so hard without a break, you sap?

We be workin’ over time without a dime an’ we just want a nap,

so, ease up, dude; start to use your head, you with ‘da head so fat;

we be doin’ da deed for your meniscus and that old knee cap,

so go lay your body down and give us a nap.

and dat’s a fact and dat’s a wrap,

if not such a very good rap.”

Well, thought he with the bad knee,

it’s not even old Motown, you see;

it’s old, white guy contemporary;

for in black rap, “Dude” you would never see.

Dude? Really?

Hey, there are references to body parts.
