Mother's Day In Little Italy (Belated Wishes)

A stooped and fragile old woman slowly made her way to the head of the table and announced, "I'd like to dedicate this next verse to all the mothers whose children turned into toads on mothers day this year".

She started to sing in a sweet and lilting voice:

"May all you children, ungrateful and fat,

May all of thee come to me,

wearing hard hats..." The whole restaurant fell silent.

"For this is the one day for you to be nice,

But since you're a reptile...

your head I must slice..."

Then she produced a large butchers knife from behind her back, lifted it above her head and with a great AAAARGH! she landed it right through the Italian tabletop.
