Eat Your Veggies

Eat your veggies you'll grow up big and strong That's what parents used to tell little boys I'm wondering what they told dainty little girls Must have used some other devious ploy Like eat your veggies you sweet young thing Boys will come knocking at your door This underhanded method of cajoling offsprings Was quite normal in the days of yore The kiddies of today are much more aware The Internet's where they get their facts If you try to bombard them with the stuff we got They'll look at you as if you're cracked Time marches on in a time honoured fashion Yesterday's technology is old hat You no sooner buy the latest up to date gadget When a newer version supersedes that When will this joy ride ever come to an end Probably never so best get used to it Keep eating your veggies it's still a good plan Eating healthy will help you stay fit ©Jack Ellison 2012
