Houston, We Have a Person

Became so fat he floated away
"Who the heck is that?", they'll say

Too much pizza, ice-cream, and pop
Parents should have told him to stop!

Five-hundred pounds of blubber
So much for land-lover!

Someday he will orbit Earth
So much for what exercise is worth!

If you eat too much be like him
Don't pig out on a whim!
