Lies

Cavities are not real

They're just a pile

of nothing. Of nonsense

that those thieves tell.

They’re vile, selfish suckers

They're just hoping to hoard

all the sweet stuff

in the world.

All the donuts.

All the candy

All the soda

All the cake

Every last peppermint

in existence.

They tell us

that they’re protecting us

From painful punishment

For pleasing our palate

That's a pile of...bananas

That they also happened to take from us.

They told these tales

Of how owls hoot

About cooking

How the ice age was

About a particularly chilly winter

All those lies

Yeah

Adults kinda suck.
