Unhealthy Backlash Cliches
I fear my favorite pollywog has indigestion
(I ought not give her treats before her nap.)
May I offer another suggestion?
Pollywogs won't thrive on eating crap.
Now my teddy bears have caught the flu
(Their seams are seeping polyester phelgm)
May I again tell you what to do?
No, sing for me the national anthem.
My fiberglass flamingos have some lice.
How they caught them isn't clear
May I offer some pertinent advice?
Don't stick them in your ear.
My kewpie dolls have entered menopause
(hot flashes wake them often)
May I offer some obvious faux pas?
You didn't cover your mouth while coughin'.
I have the sickest toybox on the block
(it's crawling with diseases)
May I offer some words that you can knock?
Or some drugs to cure their sneezes?
My three-foot Barbie has a case of clap
(she surely caught from the postman)
May I offer some advice sung in rap?
Yo man, I'll do her coast to coast man
My jack-in-the-box has developed gout
(it shows mostly in his spring)
May I proffer the same cliche' I always tout?
Put him in a sling
