Title:
Mr and Mrs Condiment
Introducing …
Mr and Mrs Condiment.
He shakes, she quivers.
He shouts, she jumps.
He laughs, she cries.
Why? Do tell?
Well ..
Mr Condiment
makes his
wife’s life
HELL
Behind-door beatings.
Rants and rages.
His sweet lady
kept on HIS wages.
And doesn’t she know it?
Tries not to show it though.
Tries to please.
Trots out behind him.
Always agrees.
He speaks for them both.
WE think this or that.
She nods to concur.
His perpetual door-mat.
Still doesn’t satisfy HIM though.
Mr Condiment
wants the full-compliment.
Wants salt with his pepper
and pepper with his salt.
Says it’s her fault.
And he beats his sweet lady
just to spice up his life.
