Chocolate ManiacI love my motherI love my dad,I love my brother,Through he drives me mad. My teacher?She is fine and dandy.But I really loveMy chocolate candy. I eat it when it's hot,I eat it when it's cold,I eat it when it's fresh,And I eat it when it's old.
I eat it by the ounce,I eat it by the pound,I eat it at the table,And I eat it off the ground. I eat it and I eat itTill my belly's going to pop,Then I eat a little more --I don't know how to stop.
I love that chocolate taste,Oh, so gooey, sweet, and thick,But I've eaten way too muchAnd I feel a little sick. I have got to learn to stop,I have got to take control.I'll give chocolate up forever . . .WHEN I'M 99 YEARS OLD!
