The Colonel and the Clown

The Colonel and the Clown

By Elton Camp

Come visit the colonel or the clown
For the finest food that can be found

You don’t even have to hunt around
For we are found in most every town

Our stores are especially neat and clean
Where many smiling faces can be seen

Most of our employees are of young age
So happy to work for the minimum wage

Anytime that you need to dash
Our food will be ready in a flash

Everything’s cooked well ahead
So walk right in and you’ll be fed

Our fat and cholesterol galore
Will make you wish for even more

Electrolytes you will never deplete
With sodium our wares are replete

Our food’s delicious and prices low
To the colonel or clown, please go
