Ode to a hamburgler"I will glady pay you Wednesday
for a hamburger today".
This was Wimpy's promise
He would eat but never pay
What enemies he must of made
the number rather high
What debts the man must have incurred
a stack up to the sky
What laws of property he broke
infractions by the score
Until that fateful day when came
a knocking at the door
And standing there right in his face
was the ominous red haired clown
and Wimpy's house of burger bags
came suddenly crashing down
It fell with a sickening mustard splat
while Ronald cuffed the bum
and told him, "Wimpy, that is that
your burger pinching's done"
Ronald was right and Wimpy is jailed
and paying for his crimes
but it helps him cope and it keeps up his hope
to think he has a short time
See Hamburgler was released on parole
just last Saturday
if he keeps his nose clean at the soda machine
his debt to society's paid
But poor old rectivist Wimpy
will undoubtably reoffend
cause he wonders how many Macs he can chow
before his shift is at end
