Guilt Rap

Sometimes I rap (in my head.)

-----------------------------------

Why is it all the food I like is never good?

I never order entrees that I know I should.

The choice between fried or steamed isn't hard to make.

Neither is the choice between nothing or cake.

But as soon as I order that caloric meal

There's an annoying feeling I begin to feel.

Guilt.

Have you ever had a bite?

Guilt's the anti-flavor.

Anti-joy,

An-ti-de-light.

Guilt.

Instead of saying, "Yum!"

Your brain yells, "Calories!"

"Trans-fat!"

And "So-di-um!"

Guilt.

Every time you try a taste

You think of all the inches

In your ever

Ex-pan-ding waist.

Guilt.

By the time main course is through

The guilt begins to calculate

the crunches

You'll. Have. To. Do.

Guilt.

The next round will make you frown.

Yes, you'll order the dessert

But you'll have

To. Choke. It. Down.

Guilt.

So

you'll

be.

Running

Rowing

Bow-Flex Bow-ing.

Lifting

Swimming

Cyc-ling, Spin-ning

Abs

Glutes

Bi's and Tri's

Calves

Quads

Hips. And. Thighs.

Resulting in a body that is lean and built.

All because you eat your meals.

With. A. Side. Of....

Guilt.
