I ate too much
turkey, I ate too much corn, I ate too much pudding and
pie, I'm stuffed up with muffins and much too much
stuffin', I'm probably going to die. I piled up my
plate and I ate and I ate, but I wish I had known when to
stop, for I'm so crammed with yams, sauces, gravies, and
jams that my buttons are starting to pop. I'm full of
tomatoes and french fried potatoes, my stomach is swollen and
sore, but there's still some dessert, so I guess it won't
hurt if I eat just a little bit more.
