Goodbye To Mrs. Spratt
Goodbye to Mrs. Spratt
By Elton Camp
Although Jack Spratt his diet may hate
Shouldn’t have a problem with weight
And he won’t have any trouble at all
With his level of the bad cholesterol
Because of what Jack puts on his plate
But Mrs. Spratt may be another story
And far too soon, she will go to glory
Her state of health just can’t be right
Because her type of food is a fright
She’ll never be wrinkled and hoary
(This change was due to a reader's suggestion. Thanks.)
