The Golden Goose

We all know tobacco's a terrible weed,

But now it's obesity taking the lead

In funding from agencies who think our health

Is worth every penny they tax from our wealth.

So if you light up you are viewed with dismay

But if you are fat you're a star right away.

There's programs designed for the baby who's fat;

For children so chubby they can't swing a bat;

For preadolescents who live on French fries;

For ev'ry young sluggard who shuns exercise.

All the fat kids should be playing this smart,

since subsidies flow like a meal a la cart.

Skinny kids starving -- now they're of no use

In mulcting the government's great golden goose!
