When Did Things Change

A Question of whether change is always good

When did potatoes become dehydrated

Why doesn’t Pepsi and Coke still taste good

It never fails to make me irritated

That nothing seems to taste like it should

 

There used to be tastes on which we all relied

That we could count on like an old trusted friend

Now most everything is genetically modified

I ask you “where’s it all going to end?”

I used to love really good potato chips

And I really hate be a drag

But I realize no sooner do those chips pass my lips

That I’d be better off scarfin’ down the plastic bag

And don’t get me started on today’s fish

I might just as well be eating fillet of cat

For after digging through the breading I wish…

Someone could tell me where the fish is at?

And whatever happened to plain ol’ paper bags 

With these plastic bags now I’m just not copin’

I usually end up with a pile of plastic rags

Whatever happened to bags that were easy to open?

Is it just me? Am I all alone in this way

The only one to feel as I do? 

That things shouldn’t change…darn near everyday

…Or does It seem that way to you too?...
