Cupboard Slam
Glimmer
Shimmer
Diet until thinner
Bleach one's teeth
Go under the surgeon's knife
Live the Hollywood life
Accumulate wealth
Excercise daily
Eat like a squirrel
But if you don't feed the middle
The bit between your head
You might as well be dead
Because you can't cheat yourself
A shelf is still a shelf
Despite the look of the cupboard
