Tom's Love Triangle
Tom knew he was going to get the axe,
running around having panic attacks,
farmer's wife wanting a restaurant buffet,
she ended up saving Tom's neck in the fray,
Tom hugging and kissing her all day to repay,
the farmer got upset without delay,
caught them hugging right on the couch,
the farmer ended up punching Tom right in the mouth,
Farmers wife buying him a greyhound bus pass,
not knowing how long Tom was going to last,
not wanting to end up on a platter or in a soup,
Tom kissed her good-bye and finally flew the coop,
Tom thought about her often and how she acted so blessedly,
thinking of his friends and family he started getting melancholy,
on a mission to save some of the turkeys from next years holiday,
he started handing out the health benefits of vegetarian recipes.
