It’s not so hard...just try it

Please go the kitchen Take a knife Not too sharp, not too large The one that shines the most In your right hand Grip it softly A thumb on the blunt side Keep your left hand in front Palms facing upwards See that nobody’s looking Remember your mother Remember your mother Just once remember How she used to see How you used to see You’ll do it yourself now Hold your breath A hard swing wont work It won’t cut, it’ll smash The red spill on the floor won’t matter Trust me, it won’t matter Once you’re done, you’ll be at peace Yeah, you’ll heave a sigh of relief Now DO IT! DO IT NOW!! CUT THAT TOMATO! You’re gonna make me some Pasta!! :-)
