Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet
Eating her curds and whey
Along came a Humpty who was just so Dumpty
And asked Miss Muffet to play

“Little Miss Muffet, come sit on my tuffet
I know how to make your day”
“Oh Mr. Dumpty won’t you please Humpt-me?
I won’t even ask you to pay”

After their lovin’
A bun in the oven
Was a surprise to one and all

But it didn’t stop there
They just didn’t care
One wasn’t enough at all

Nine more babies
A plague, like rabies
Made Muffet and Dumpty mad

“Why did we do it?
We didn’t think through it!
Adding more people was bad”

Overpopulation
Is no vacation
It makes us very sad

But that’s what you get
When you forget
There is limited space on earth

So stop having kiddies
You fat ugly biddies
Life without children is mirth

Don’t make like these two
Have less than a few
Our planet needs no more birth.
