A Prayer For Dieters
Lord, give me strength that I may not fall
Into the clutches of cholesterol;
At polyunsaturates I'll never mutter
For the road to Hell is paved with butter.
And cake is cursed and cream is awful
And Satan is hiding in every waffle.
Beelzebub is a chocolate drop
And Lucifer is a lollipop.
Teach me the evils of Hollandaise,
Of pasta and globs of mayonnaise,
Of crisp, fried chicken from the South,
Lord, if you love me, Shut My Mouth.
