The Lizzy Pitofsky Poem

I can't get enoughsky

Of Lizzie Pitofsky.

I love her so much that it hurts.

I want her so terrible

I'd give her my gerbil

Plus twenty-two weeks of desserts.

I know that it's lovesky

'Cause Lizzie Pitofsky

Is turning me into a saint.

I smell like a rose,

I've stopped picking my nose,

And, I practically never say ain't.

I don't push and shovesky

'Cause Lizzie Pitofsky

Likes boys who are gentle and kind.

I'm not throwing rocks

And I'm changing my socks

(And to tell you the truth I don't mind.)

Put tacks in my shoes.

Feed me vinegar juice,

And, do other mean bad awful stuffsky.

But promise me this:

I won't die without kiss-

Ing my glorious Lizzie Pitofsky.
