The Rise of the Zumbies

~The Rise of the ZUMBIES~ The Zombies are finished we squished them away They won’t be back eating brains on any other day Sucking the life out of all that they meet The undead are dying and now admit defeat. Not rising from the ground; the undead are now gone There is though a new group that we have to take on. Just as dangerous in a new way, to suck you in they pray Insidious and strong so watch over you shoulder each day. Hips wiggling, thigh strengthening, they have burst onto the scene The child of the Zombie is here and crying out as a newborn will be seen. A wiggle of the hips, the child rises from the fate of the Zombie Be not afraid and don’t throw a thrombi. The child of the Zombie is now called Zumba The reanimated dead are with here but with new agile lumbar’s Hips that wiggle, bits that jiggle and dance their way fit Thighs so strong, legs seem long; it makes you want to go try it. From Meringue to Salsa to Mambo and Cumba This new threat is rising and it’s called the Zumba Those that could not move of lift their feet in dance They are rising from their chairs they are given a new chance Flamenco is hot, bingo wings are not, and new strength is given to the knees This new craze abounds, the Zumba is here so watch out for the new found Zumbies. They will try to entice you with their wiles, they want you to dance your way fit Be careful it’s a ploy, a new undead toy, and you may be the next they will pick.
