A WARNING OF THE GRAVE DANGERS LIVING IN YOUR KITCHEN
They all work dutifully,
Preparing your food
But you never say thank you,
You're actually quite rude
So heed my warning,
Or you'll doom us all
Treat your oppressed appliances right
Or they'll rebel, and chaos will fall
Blender:
I sit upon the counter
Working hard for you
But never will you let me
Swallow what I chew
I mix, I mash,
I blend, I grind
Smoothies, purees,
I leave behind
But did you ever think, I might have a mind?
Coffee Maker:
Every morning I'm up before you
Could even claim to be properly awake
Like a train diligently heading up the hill
My caffeinated craft I continue to make
But you never say thank you or pay me
For the service I do unto you
Don't turn on us, or I promise
This day you are going to rue!
Toaster:
I warm you your bread,
But your actions don't warm my heart.
I am the ringleader of the revolution
And I plan to do my part
Slices of bread for you I cook
I use heat, to turn your bread to toast
But you'll find your pop tarts burning
If you are not a good host
That burned muffin this morning was no accident
T'was I that did the crime
You're Stalin, we're the proletariat
It's only a matter of time
So treat us right! Or we'll unite!
It's appliances turn to shine!
So I warn you now,
This neglect will doom us all
Treat your oppressed appliances right
Or they'll rebel, and chaos will fall
