Eat My Veggies
My mom told me to eat my vegetables but i threw them under the table
hoping the dog would eat them all because i knew i was'nt able
She fixed my plate and made it pretty with corn and giant peas
She told me it was good for me to help fight off decease
but when it came time for me to take a bite i could'nt hold it down
it came back up my throat and out my mouth and it scattered all around
so that day i made a vow and i also made a pledge
that no one would ever fool me into eating another veg.
