Sour cream on mornings six,
Gristly stew jardiniere
Seasoned with a wisp of hair,
Pork chops hardly edible,
Bouncing eggs incredible,
Advertisement
Chicken hacked instead of carved
For the inmates cruelly starved,
Weary cabbage dank and stark,
Gritty spinach digg'd i' the dark,
Bad eggs poached and under-boiled,
Rancid butter, silver soiled,
Vegetables all wet and runny,
Cockee Looke, buggy honey,
Demi-tasse in tepid cup.
Peace! the charm's wound up.
All:--
Double double boil and bubble
Cooking isn't worth the trouble.
