Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
Nail? What nail?

That didn't hurt.

by Yardier

Of course, this is serious
It’s a nail in my head
It came from a framing gun
I didn’t fall out of bed

I tried to build a picture frame
To display my carpentry skills
Now I have a nail in my head
Can you spare some pills?

Yes, I know it’s serious
And I’m bleeding on the floor
I’m not worried about the carpet
Just lead me to the door

There’s a claw hammer over there
And an old first-aid kit
With a little bit of leverage
I think I can remove it

Yes, I can stop the bleeding
With a thumb tack and bandage
I need to hang the picture frame
Before I cause more damage
