The Kitchen Disaster

               Yesterday was the worst day ever
 
                I burned everything I cooked

                There was no way to win the war

                No recipes to let me off the hook

 

                The stove in the kitchen would not light

                I couldn’t make the meat well done or rare

                The lights in the kitchen were so dim.

                And the chicken was really bare.

 

               I then tried to attempt dessert

                The milk, the chocolate, the crème

                No one said not to light the torch

                The flames erupted an it wasn’t a dream

 

               As the alarms on the fire trucks sounded

                My heart began to race

                The kitchen I know and love

                Turned into a black and muddy disgrace

 

               I am a world famous cook

                Recipes and cooking were my game

                I thought I was headed for Iron Chef

                But today my talent is lame               

               

                Nothing would cooperate with me

                Not the lights, not the books, not the meat

                The oven was too cold to cook

                Everything had me beat!
