Real life rock lyrics


Yesterday, (not part of this rock lyric thing but indeed a rock lyric), I was watching 'Leenie and sparky in the afternoon when I got home from work. 'Leenie was hungry so I sat her in her high chair and gave her a Vienna sausage and some crackers. I too was hungry so I got out a chocolate pudding and a onion bagel and some cream cheese. Well 'Leenie sized up what I had and then looked at what she had and decided she too needed chocolate pudding. This is when the rock lyric came to my head. There is or was a band called Pink Floyd and my senior year they came out with an album called The Wall. The title track was basically about the English school system. Well at the end of the song there is an English voice presumably a teacher yelling at kids. The man screams "You've got to eat your meat! How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?!" Well I was able to tell 'Leenie just that "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?!" Unfortunately I was the only one in the near vicinity who got the joke so you, dear reader, get to hear about it second hand. Just for information's sake, she got her pudding without eating all her meat. You tell me if you could refuse that face.

It is hard to say no to them when they are that age.

Good job, father of Leenie, for being so kind and thoughtful to give pudding before meat gone. I like my desert before the end of the meal too. I would not resist giving in to Leenie's delightfully cute expression either.

Not only could I not resist that cute face, I don't think even a hardhearted English schoolmaster could. Isn't it frustrating when a perfect moment like that comes and there are no witnesses? Thanks for the laugh.
