© Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved My Mom is on a health food kick Last night we ate a tofu brick But nothing else makes me as sick As that awful falafel waffle Organic this, organic that With not one single gram of fat I’d rather eat a baseball bat Than that awful falafel waffle With powdered sugar? That’s a joke! The syrup’s made from artichoke With just one bite my front tooth broke On that awful falafel waffle That Awful Falafel Waffle Asparagus or Brussels sprouts? While Mom is choosing, Dad just pouts But come tomorrow, no one doubts It's that awful falafel waffle I need some meat, and Dad does too We sure can’t stand granola stew But we must leave no trace or clue Of that awful falafel waffle Mom’s not looking, so here’s our chance We’re off to eat those fries from France And guess what’s hidden in my pants? It’s that awful falafel waffle! --Jeff Mondak
