  • ODE TO A CAN OF PEACHES

    They don't cut peaches too straight in China,
    But maybe they grow crooked over there.
    Maybe I just buy really cheap peaches,
    But I'm not sure that I really care.

    Stephenson's Orchard is three miles away,
    But my peaches, they came from China.
    China's half the whole freakin world away,
    But I ate them, and the jet lag was minor.

    I ate the whole can,
    In only one day.
    I belched in the morning,
    And farted all day.

    I ate Chinese peaches,
    What more can I say?
    I don't look Chinese,
    They're just peaches, okay?
