I Should Thank Her

I Should Thank Her

So often thought that I should thank her
For being such a glorious and big banker
And miracles she does with all our bills
So truly amazing how she gets her thrills.

In kitchen with cupboard is quite a chef
While always trying to worry me to death
As to what on the menu may be next
With her phone me she tried to text.

Each message was madly revealing
When I read it head hit the ceiling
Of seasoning she completely ran out
Meal was in question with much doubt.

Was then that I knew right off the bat
Her biscuits then doornail were all flat
Ate whole meal as if Tommy Tucker
Then my two lips started to pucker.

Was me who had to pick and choose
More then likely will probably loose
Wife meal destroyed and did slaughter
Cook next one will allow our daughter.
