The Snack Race
The apple and banana were in a race
The pear and bunch of grapes soon made up the pace
The pineapple soon pushed through
He pricked the plumb who became a prune
The apple, pear and banana soon got sliced that was not nice
The orange, lemon and lime were having a spat
The ruby red grapefruit squeezed his way through and juiced the opposition to the rind
So much so they start to mush into a juicy slush in no time
Down at the rear the strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, cherry and peach
Followed by yoghurt and ice-cream
A pineapple slice came tumbling through it splattered them all,
Got stuck in the yoghurt pot and made a beautiful compote
The fruit and nut and popping candy and fudge pieces were making a run for it
The Milky Way, Mars bar, Twix were taking the mick a bit
The Snickers bar hit them all with a chocolate wall
They were no more and Snickers surpassed them all
The Bourbon, Hobnob, Digestive and Rich Tea rolled passed them all
As they neared the end their heart sank the last hurdle was a dunking feature
The biscuits went head on but many crumbled under the pressure and were not up to measure
The Hobnob held his oats and kept it together at his leisure
The race had come to an end
Snickers and pineapple were disqualified
Ruby red squeezed into second place
The crowd cheered when Hobnob got his medal as he was the only one with a smile on his face the rest of the contestants were in a fruit daze
Oh what an amazing race!
