The Little Fat Boy

nce
there was a boy
Who loved to eat cake,
When he ate too much,
The cradle would break.
In the castle,
Everyone said,
You've got to start eating,
Some fruit and some bread.
But he ignored them,
He was so dumb.
He would sit in the corner and suck his thumb.
And then one day a war broke out,
Everybody Everywhere started to,shout,
'Cause of the death of the king's only son,
The little fat boy was finally over and done.
History of Our Nursery Rhyme
This lullaby came from a long way, back in the 1500' s. A boy who happened to be important, the son of the warrior , didn' t
know his destiny. He was short and fat. He kept eating and never exercised. He never trained to become a warrior. A battle broke out and he wasn' t prepared. He was caught unexpected and was killed. The whole kingdom fell because of him.
Moral: If you don't meet the goals you are supposed to meet, then everyone could suffer.
