Tomato Juice

Tomato juice expands your chest.
Tomato juice beats all the rest.
Tomato juice will start your day
In an invigorating way.
Tomato juice that's cold and tart
Will comb your hair and make it part.
Tomato juice thrown down your hatch
Will make you master of your patch;
It will not rock your plane or boat,
Or cause your abdomen to bloat.
In fact you'll find - no ifs or buts -
You'll get a six pack on your guts.
Indeed, it offers many charms,
Like bulging muscles on your arms.
Tomato juice with toast and eggs
Will send a shiver down your legs.
Tomato juice is super fuel.
You'll prevail in any duel.
All lassitude, it quickly wrecks.
They say it's even good for sex.
It augments your fertility
So much more than herbal tea.
Consumption of tomato juice
Increases chances of papoose.
Those who drink it cannot lose.
It's so much healthier than booze.
Contains a range of vitamins.
Helps a fish grow bigger fins.
The oceans (scientists deduce)
Are 1% tomato juice.
Those who drink of juice tomato
Tap their feet in brisk staccato,
Dance and whirl and loop the loop,
While those who slurp tomato soup
Fall far behind, then fade and die.
It's very strange. I don't know why.
It's great for any Barb or Bruce.
Nothing beats tomato juice!
All I ask is when I die
Please place upon each sightless eye
Tomato juice - don't care which brand -
To take me to the promised land.
