The Young The Old The Sugar

 

---

The battle of the sexes is now stale and growing cold,
with a shrinking job base, it's now: YOUTH VERSUS THE OLD!
Out of work old geezers tell the kids to hit the road;
while the whippersnappers text each other in some code.
Computers still are baffling to those of mature years;
but they hold no terrors if you're wet behind the ears.
The young are always online, looking for that big job break;
the old go stand in lines until their feet begin to ache.
The old are wise and crafty while the young are so naive;
the young are very flexible, the old love their pet peeve.
So when there is an opening, both sides had better run
(too bad the job is promised to the boss's lazy son!)

And now it's pure can sugar that is coming back in style.
High-fructose corn syrup is considered pretty vile.
Over processed and fermented, chemically suspect;
corn syrup makes you obese as your health is surely wrecked.
But - oh! - that pure cane sugar is a natural, safe, treat.
(Don't listen to your dentist; they are never too discrete.)
Mary Poppins sang a spoon-full helps to medicate
and sugar plums at Christmas-time?  A joy to masticate!
So put a pinch of sugar in your cheese and macaroni
(just between the two of us, this whole thing is baloney!)
