Wear a sweater when the wind blows
Don’t go swimming far from shore.
Stay away from open windows
Higher than the second floor.

Only eat things soft and mooshy
A pretzel is enough to croak you
Maybe you should stick to sushi.

Underwear that’s made of lead.

Don’t be always hot to Trotsky.
Bear in mind you’re getting old.
Anthrax germs can make you zotzky.
Smallpox starts out like a cold.

Illness can be cruel and stealthy
Death is always sad and woeful.
So here to keep you fit and healthy
Is cabbage soup straight from Chernobyl.
Oh, that kicker! Love it.
