Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson
A brand new sheriff came to town
I'm sure he's not the last

Compared with us, the kids today
Too little play and too much weigh.
Alone indoors they snack and sit
And buttons hit, while we stayed fit.

The new crop of innocence

Trusting destiny to the...

some mysterious dish,
