“It’s this newfangled thing
Come on, we have to try it!”

“I’m not liking what I see,
Not sure I want to buy it!”

“It’s a cupcake in a mug,
But you don’t get to drink it”

“Looks a little odd to me,
You might want to rethink it.”

“Now, don’t be a silly nilly
All we need to do is bake it”

“Am I supposed to like this?
‘Cause I don’t think I can fake it.”

“Trust me, you’ll love this
Would I ever steer you wrong?”

“Well, there was this time when…”

“Okay, let’s move along!”

“Patty, I don’t understand you,
Why must you try this thing?”

Well, Gerry, how I see it, is
It might make my taste buds sing.”

“Let’s hope that’s all it does
Or you’ll scare away the neighbors”

“Very funny, ha ha ha,
So will you try this flavor?”

“Okay, okay, I’ll give it a try,
And pray it’s the last one you ever buy…”
