JILL WILL
JILL WILL
Jill was fat and could eat no lean
Her husband Jack, was opposite
In the sea, she could float
And once capsized a boat
So was told just slim down a bit
She also had a kid named Jack
And Jill was a cook and a mum
But sometimes was worried
When meals were hurried
Fearing he’d choke on a plum
Jill carried some extra weight
And unlike Jack, she was slow
She wasn’t that quick
Often missing a trick
He was much nimbler, you know
One time, they went up the hill
Together, but at a slow pace
She stumbled and fell
It really hurt like hell
And got mud all over her face
But at least Jill was also famous
Both featured in nursery rhymes
Slightly fatter than him
But was pictured as slim
As is the fashion in these times
