Always took a shining to him

Wilbur was Mr Ed's owner

That talking horse brought him fame 

I recently came across another Wilbur

Force was his last name

 

If you're patient, I'll tell you his story

In his company, you'd never feel menaced

Wilbur Force was patient too

Not in his company, at the dentist 

 

He was really into pain, you see

He couldn't get his fill

You like being in the dentist chair? He'd agree

He really loved the drill

 

Guess Wilbur Force didn't get paid much

For acting in that scene

Was a different story, years later

When he was a Marine

 

By then he made more than a nickel, son

He always had a lot of fun

A good role, he'd always come back

If he didn't get what he wanted

He'd hit the road, Jack!

 

He was a good man, one of few

We remember an iconic scene

As a Marine, was demanded he tell the truth

Didn't think that we could handle it

His acting was a tour de force

 

If we were more like Wilbur Force

We could handle the pain of truth 

If he had pain inside his mouth

He could handle the tooth ache too

 

You know who I'm referring to? 
I forgot to tell you what movie he was in

Can't tell ya now. Doing a little shopping

I'll make sure to tell ya tomorrah

 

Are you upset you have to wait till tomorrah?

I told ya, today I'm doing a little shop..O horror!

I forgot the title!
