Bon Appetite Blues

A bacon egg and cheese biscuit Is what I'd like the most Instead I have some melon And a piece of melba toast Why can't I have a Danish Or piece of pumpkin pie Without a tinker's worry About triglyceride At times it's such a struggle To keep this frame of mind Raiding the refrigerator For the treats I would find Waking in the morning Sometimes it is quite close Hit the bathroom running From a fiber overdose Reading all the labels Trying to shop smart What I thought a staple Is not even on the Chart! Walking down the aisle My taste buds would agree All that seems appealing Is neither sugar nor fat free mr_alleycat
