Be Nice To Fat People

Be Nice To Fat People

By Elton Camp

To speak ill of the obese is quite rude
It’s done only by folks mean and crude

It’s true that their energy may be low
Which can cause them to move slow

What their ridiculers don’t realize
That fact they could come to prize

For if the fatty should lag behind
The trim, the results won’t mind

If a bear is in hot pursuit
Then especially it will suit

Since to the one it catches first
The bear will then do its worst

So, to the fat, nice behave
Your life they may well save
