(To be sung to the tune of  "Cruella DeVil")
 
Vanilla DeVil, Vanilla DeVil,
If she cannot bore you, 
then nobody will.
With her, you’ll never 
ever have a thrill.
Vanilla, Vanilla
She’s better for you 
than a sleeping pill.
Need sleep? See 
Vanilla  DeVil.

She’s simply plain; 
if she were some ice cream,
she’d never be 
an interesting one.
No caramel swirl. 
No flavor has this girl.
She is the antidote 
for having fun!

A humorless girl, 
such bad company.
She hates to go out, so 
what good is she for?
Avoid her when you have
some time to kill.
Vanilla Vanilla DeVil.

Vanilla DeVil, Vanilla DeVil,
If she cannot bore you, 
then nobody will.
With her, you’ll never 
ever have a thrill.
Vanilla, Vanilla DeVil

I don't think I have met her. LOL..Vanilla is good you know so I guess Vanilla Devil would be an oxymoron sort of. Thanks for sharing this one with us. I was delighted to read it. Sara K

Vanilla is ok but I find it boring, Vanilla pudding, ice cream, etc. I'd much rather have a different flavor.

I just looked them up. I guess I never paid attention to names in the Dalmation movie!

Andrea, you've mixed ice cream with a movie toon character. Now you're making me think of checking our the refrigerator for something more exotic. I was expecting this to deal with cruelty....but you did something much more complex and funny as I think about it.
