To Smoke Before Bedtime
At dinner for a start,
I ate a very fresh coconut.
Fearing my stomach upset
Ate a nice vinaigrette,
Then I ate a cake,
My mother baked.
To prevent constipation,
And for good digestion,
Rare sort of cheese I ate.
I ate a banana for a bet.
And to avoid the gases,
I ate some hens with lettuce.
To have a very deep sleep
I ate a very cheap sheep.
Smoked nicely, went to sleep.
Waiting for the sleep be deep
But instead of falling asleep I crap.
What a sloppy chap!
What is moral? - Right you are.
Don’t you go very far!
As it’s really a crime
To smoke before bedtime!
