Oh swinging scale
I know you well
You left and right my efforts

Oh swinging scale
You know me well
You measure and count my intake

Oh swinging scale
I have to tell
Your secrets to my friends

Oh swinging scale
Please go to hell-o?
What is this? Scale o-mine?

The pounds are lower?
The number is fine!
Oh scale! Blessed Scale!
I love you so much!
Yay!


(ok, didn't know how to end it - but you get the idea)

  1. lol!

    You've captured that love/hate relationship with the scale pretty well I'd say. :-)

    I'm not in love with mine today, but then PMS is hard on all relationships, right?

  2. I love it and I love the ending too. I have a love/hate relationship with my scale too.

    Oh Scale! Blessed Scale!
