Crash Test Dummy

When two people get married The groom should change his name They should call him "Crash Test Dummy" But now the bride, she can stay the same When a man marries a woman And she don't how to cook He has to test them recipes Made out of some dumb book Of course, that means food poisoning And a trip to the emergency room Remember I said, "Crash Test Dummy" Cause he's no longer the groom And if she ever asks him If she's getting fat He'll probably be wearing a helmet To protect him from her baseball bat And now that leaves his mother-in-law The biggest danger he's seen yet For when she comes to visit It's something he'll never forget That's why we call him "Crash Test Dummy" Because marriage is a pretty rough ride He's gotta buckle up and hold on tight When he marries his beloved bride

Had a good laugh reading this one, Larry! Very funny! When my mom cooked and served her first meal to my dad, she accidentally used soap flakes instead of potato flakes to make "mashed potatoes." Although he never said one word of complaint, when mom tasted the food, she was mortified. It's a family legend that evokes as much laughter as your witty poem! Love, Carolyn
