Did you happen to read,
In the paper today,
Of the shortage of butter,
Over in Norway?
So ill-timed and cruel,
This sad deprivation,
Leads Norwegians to look,
Outside of their nation.
They can use margarine,
As one way of faking,
The lack of real butter,
In their holiday baking.
But a butter black market,
Is what Norway’s needing.
So let’s bootleg some butter,
From butter rich Sweden.
I feel your need,
For something thick and creamy,
Is that butter in your pants?
Or are you just happy to see me?
Hmm…perhaps bootlegging butter isn’t a very good idea. It’s too messy.
Oh don’t back down now,
I know that it’s hard,
But without butter,
They’ll have to use lard!
Or even worse,
Use margarine!
Which is a cardinal
Baking sin.
wow, interesting one, butter shortage, never heard of, smiles.
