We went from using plasticware to Lenox
(Not one of us has caused a plate to crack)
Now I can’t say our stoneware really sucks.
We’re careful now and walk around like eunuchs
(Although you’ll still find papers in a stack).
We went from using plasticware to Lenox.
Establishing a balance is the crux --
(Most of the time my back feels out of whack)
Now I can’t say our stoneware really sucks.
The floor no longer looks like Jackson Pollock’s,
(Though there still exists a cat piss sour smack).
We went from using plasticware to Lenox.
We’re neither Pollyanna nor grave cynics,
But here to stay and starting to unpack
Now I can’t say our stoneware really sucks.
This allusive Lenox is the bollucks!
(At least we’ve found ourselves back in the black)
