Villanelle to Sugar Day

Hurray. hurray here comes the day.
Ice creams and trifles, yes, yes, yes
Candy crunching all the way.

When all health scares are thrown away
Apple strudel, Eton mess,
Hurray. hurray here comes the day.

Who cares what the doctors say?
What if my teeth are in a mess?
Candy crunching all the way.

Sugar’s here and here to stay
My gums have got a huge abscess.
Hurray. hurray here comes the day.

Bring on the buns and cakes so gay
My poor waistline is under stress.
Candy crunching all the way.

Eat as many chocolates as you may
I cannot fit into my dress,
But still I celebrate the day.
Candy crunching all the way.
