The Society For the Appreciation of Chocolate Iced-Cream

The Society for the Appreciation Of Chocolate Iced-Cream
Is it so innocent as its name makes it seem?
A club who'd name Chocolate the iced-cream supreme - 
Is not its very existence obscene?

They say Chocolate's richness of flavor is best
With its sweet, creamy contours who'd not be impressed?
But by so saying there's more they suggest
To cherish Chocolate's to indict all the rest!

This appeal to purity we must resist
Celebration of Chocolate's a denial of Twist
Neapolitan surely is next on their list
Of the iced-creams they think should no longer exist

And so let us act on the matter at hand
We will legislate by the People's demand
Any notion of flavor right out of the land 
Aren't we harmonious now (if bland)?
