I brush my teeth and look in the mirror,
And laugh out loud,
As I'm beaming from ear to ear,
I'd rather pick flowers instead of fights,
And rather than flaunt my style I'd flash you a smile
Of clean pearly whites.
I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill,
I smooth my hair,
Sit back in the chair
But somehow I still get the chills
Have a seat he says pleasantly,
As he shakes my hand and practically laughs at me,
"Open up nice and wide" he says peering in,
And with a smirk he says "don't have a fit,
This will just pinch a bit"
As he tries not to grin.
When hygienists
Leave on long vacations
That's when dentists scream and
Lose their patience
Talking only brings the toothaches on because
I say the stupidest things
So if my results go south, I swallow my pride with an aspirin and shut my mouth
Golf and alcohol don't mix
And that's why I don't drink and drive
Because good grief
I'd knock out my teeth
And have to kiss my smile goodbye
I've been to the dentist a thousand times
So I know the drill,
I smooth my hair,
Sit back in the chair
But some how I still get the chills
And laugh out loud,
As I'm beaming from ear to ear,
I'd rather pick flowers instead of fights,
And rather than flaunt my style I'd flash you a smile
Of clean pearly whites.
I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill,
I smooth my hair,
Sit back in the chair
But somehow I still get the chills
Have a seat he says pleasantly,
As he shakes my hand and practically laughs at me,
"Open up nice and wide" he says peering in,
And with a smirk he says "don't have a fit,
This will just pinch a bit"
As he tries not to grin.
When hygienists
Leave on long vacations
That's when dentists scream and
Lose their patience
Talking only brings the toothaches on because
I say the stupidest things
So if my results go south, I swallow my pride with an aspirin and shut my mouth
Golf and alcohol don't mix
And that's why I don't drink and drive
Because good grief
I'd knock out my teeth
And have to kiss my smile goodbye
I've been to the dentist a thousand times
So I know the drill,
I smooth my hair,
Sit back in the chair
But some how I still get the chills

That's when dentists scream and lose their patients"
Love the double entendre, patients/patience!
The rest he just took the opportunity to right a funny song about going to the dentist and trying not drinking and driving.
I think this song symbolizes the music industry or something in that general area
The patient with the good teeth would be the artist with a nice talent that the world loves and by going to the dentist to get it cleaned would symbolize going to a popular company to promote your talent
and the entire cleaning process would symbolize the pain and hardships you receive from the media and such but in the end you
The golf and alcohol bit would symbolize the pleasures you get from being famous but it would be hard to relax when you are partying and drinking all the time and the knocking out his teeth would symbolize the total crash of his fame...
Well, that's my interpretation of the song ^^;
Losing teeth, in dreams, can represent social anxiety, fear of losing control. I think the "dentist" refers to a therapist or psychologist, and the writer's discomfort or fear of therapy.
