The Ballad of Charlie Macgrue

The Ballad of Charlie Macgrue

There once was a man named Charlie Magrue…
He bought him a Heffer to make him a stew.
He fed it a cleansed it and took care of it’s life.
He loved it so much that he made it his wife.

They spent several years just happy as clams,
And often had dinners of parsnips and yams.
And early one spring to the delight of Magrue.
He cooked his dear wife and made from her a stew.

Filthy!

Ketchup Stains upon your clothes,
Mashed potatoes on your nose,
You should be ashamed , Yes you!
I don't care if you are two.
Matted hair and wrinkled shirt.
Fingernails all filled with dirt.
You should have more pride than that.
Maybe I'd do better with a cat!

Oh don't smile. I was worked up into a good lather about all this filth.
Quit it. If you smile then that's all I will see. I will forget about the dirt and the.....oh look your smiling....what were we talking about again?
