Celebrities and Stars
By Duncan M Wilcox
Love nest, love den and then love rat,
she was too thin, but now too fat,
a clinic for the oversexed,
he cheated on his wife by text.
That threesome seemed a fun idea,
the clinic says she'll soon be clear,
a nasty case of kiss and tell,
she's topless in the Sun as well.
Her boobs aren't what they used to be,
they're nearly bouncing off her knee,
he's run off with her ageing mother,
with therapy she may recover.
She likes her wine by the bottle,
he snorts cocaine in a brothel,
their double lives you wouldn't guess,
luckily we've got the press.
Stars have talent, courage too,
they have their pride in what they do,
dignity if they don't win,
try again and not give in.
But just what filled the glossy pages,
in those grey pre-botox pages?
celebs live fast, celebs are free,
as you and I would like to be.
So mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who's had the best boob job of all?
