(CS4U) A tater tale

Well, A   Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other, And   Finally they got married, and had a little sweet Potato,   Which they Called 'Yam'. Of course, they wanted the   Best for Yam. When it was time, they told   Her About   The facts of life. They warned her about going out   And getting Half-baked,   So she wouldn't get accidentally   Mashed, And   Get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato,' and End up   With a bunch of Tater Tots. Yam said not to worry, no   Spud would get her Into   The sack and make   a rotten potato out of her! But on the other hand she   Wouldn't stay home And become a Couch Potato either. She   Would get plenty of exercise so as   Not To   Be skinny like her Shoestring Cousins. When she went   Off to Europe, Mr. And Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for   The hard-boiled guys from Ireland . And the Greasy guys   From France called the French Fries. And   When she went out West, to watch out For   The Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped. Yam said she   Would stay on the straight and Narrow and wouldn't   Associate with Those high class Yukon Golds, or the   Ones From   The other side of the tracks Who   Advertise their trade on all The trucks that say, 'Frito   Lay.' Mr. And Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho   P.U. (that's Potato University ). So   That when she graduated she'd really Be in the   Chips. But in spite of all they did for Her, one-day   Yam came home And announced she was Going to marry Tom   Brokaw. Tom Brokaw! Mr.. And   Mrs. Potato were very upset. They Told Yam she   Couldn't Possibly Marry Tom Brokaw Because he's   Just....... Are you Ready for this? Are You   Sure? * * OK! Here   It is! * * * * A COMMONTATER
