I'm a Fast Food Junkie
by Mary Louise;Town Jaqua, Health Minister 12/8/24
 

I'm a fast food junkie
And I'm proud of how I eat;
I can down a giant burger, fries, and shake
In a time that can't be beat.

I like going to a handy Drive-Thru
And ordering up a meal:
Double burgers, fries, and soda-
For the price, it's an awesome deal.

I like those frozen TV dinners,
Cuz they really hit the spot;
Jus' pop 'em in the microwave
And zap 'em 'til they're hot.

Late night snacks are a special treat-
I munch away as I watch TV-
Popcorn, pizza, pretzels, pop,
Life could no more better be.

I eat dessert at any time
Be it morning, noon or night;
I like gooey donuts, packaged pies,
A gallon of ice cream is gone on sight.

I like to eat my lunch in style,
So I grab a dog and bun
I smother it with special sauce
And eat it on-the-run.

Now, I'm really fond of chips-
Those crunchy, tasty bits;
I can down a bag in record time
And eat them with assorted dips.

I say, my eats have gotta be fast
Cuz I am a busy dude;
I have no time to bake or cook,
So that's why I like fast, junk food.

Call me lazy or a fast food freak-
Call me what you will;
At least I don't do hard drugs
Or pop those pricey Pharma pills.

At times I run outta steam,
So I grab a little energy shot;
Quick-as-a-wink I guzzle it down
And WHAMMO! SUPER energy I GOT!

I know nothing about newtrishun
I can't even spell the word;
My body tells me what it wants
'FAST FOOD! FAST FOOD!' is what I heard!

People call me a junk food connoiseur-
A regular gourmet when it comes to food,
For I eat the best cheap stuff around;
To satisfy my gut and mood.

If you want to be a fast food junkie,
Saddle up and take my advice
For garbage in and garbage out
Is the ticket and it comes at a high price.

So make your food choices carefully
And weigh the personal cost
For to be a human garbage can
You'll find that your life is lost.

 

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man,
but the end thereof are the ways of death.
Proverbs 14:12
