Constipation

It was constipation, you know
                      All of the bananas she ate were alarming 
Then a bit of cheese, brought her to her knees
               All the little faces she made were so charming

It was constipation, you know
               Eating all that sugar and fast food will do that
And too much white bread, brings it to a head
                It got to the point, she was ready to chew fat

It was constipation, I know
             I was staying with her and that’s all she fed me
Drinking all that cow, played a part and how
          Now I guess we both better lay off that red meat!

Heed the words I’ve said, we are both half dead
                                   and now constipation lies ahead


To the tune of ‘Fascination” by Nat King Cole

Oh my, Mike...now I'll spend the rest of the day singing Fascination to your words in my head. Constipation is a pain in the butt, but I do love my cheese!
