Bad Habits
Bad Habits
Oh what bliss is picking your nose
Or removing the debris between the toes
Then forget to wash your dirty hands
And cook the dinner, you understand
And worse to eat the snot that’s picked
It’s enough to make one really sick
Licking the top of a fresh cream cake
And keeping from all of those who take
Popping those spots upon your face
And wipe with a towel to leave not a trace
Buy a pack from the shop then light up
And smoke in the smog coughing phlegm up
Infect your poor neighbour’s healthy lungs
With smoke and tar until they are gunged
Too many sweets are known to be bad
False teeth and fat result from this fad
So rid yourself from all these obsessions
And look upon them with disdain and rejection
