Please don’t buy me chocolates <br />No more greasy chips <br />Take away the cheesecake <br />It goes straight on my hips <br /> <br />Keep the biscuits hidden <br />Don’t give me full fat cheese <br />Ignore my constant pleading <br />Even when I’m on my knees <br /> <br />Instead give me a salad <br />Lots of things all green <br />Then try to help me eat it all <br />Even though I’m not too keen <br /> <br />Fresh fruits for my pudding <br />And give me lots of veg <br />But no more of that mange-tout stuff <br />That tastes like privet hedge <br /> <br />I need to lose a stone or two <br />To make me really glad <br />But I couldn’t leave the trifle <br />That you left there looking sad <br /> <br /> <br />© 2008 David Threadgold <br />Rambling Riddles
