Tupperware

I’ve got a love/hate thing with Tupperware
It’s nifty I’ll agree
But what to do with all those lids
Would someone please tell me

I’ve got so many hangin’ around
I’m running out of space
I try to find the proper one
But it’s never in it’s place

I’ve got every shape and size they make
And I’m buyin’ more for sure
I’m just a Tupperware junkie
How much more can I endure

They sell me on the “burp ‘n seal”
And new colors shiny bright
But all those mixed up shapely lids
Are makin’ me uptight

Got extra food? Give me a sec
There’s a perfect bowl right here
But where’s the lid that seals it now
It’s gone for good I fear

I think I’m gonna’ start from scratch
And throw it all away
‘Cause Tupperware’s got cool new stuff
Just got my catalog today

I truly was thinking about doing a tupperware piece. HA I'm constantly taking food to a neighbor and she's always so worried about bringing it back right away, but I literally have three cupboards full of the stuff, and of course lids are always a problem. But how can you love a thing called TUPPER WARE? That's the funny part. Great write, enjoyed.
