No More Candy - Ruthie Henshall

for many many women

wo have a slight tendancy to overweight

and don’t we all?

We sit at home reading a good book

or listening to a symphony

And without realizing it

our hand slips into the candy jar

We become indiscreet

Eating sweet after sweet

Though we know all too well

Where that may lead

So this box was designed

With the two of us in mind

As the kind of reminder we need

When you raise the lid

The music plays

Like a disaproving mom

And it sings in you ear

«No more candy, my dear»

In a way it’s a little like the voice of God

Customer: I’ll take it

Store Clerks: Thank you Madame

Please come again Madame
