Late Night Snack

I snuck to the fridge to eat a bite
Ever so quietly late at night
I couldn't see where to go
I screamed when I stumped my toe
My wife called the cops then turned on the light

They sent a cop that kicked in my door
Threw me and my wife both on the floor
 I had embarrassed us both
That cop ate my wife's meatloaf
And now I'm hungry and my toe is sore
