A CHOCOLATE ORANGE

If I was a chocolate orange,
Many would want a piece of me,
Especially at Christmastime,
When they're slumped watching the TV.

If I was a chocolate orange,
I would get smashed and torn apart,
And if you think that sounds painful,
That would be just the torture's start.

People would bite and suck me hard,
Or shove me into a stocking.
But I'm smart; I'd get my own back,
Because I'm rather fattening.
