/// All the copper pots need to be scrubbed.
With a paste they must firmly be rubbed.
Salt with lemon juice proved
to get tarnish removed,
but when questions arise, maid gets snubbed.
/// The new scullery maid gets no peace,
For her orders to work never cease.
“Ma’am, it isn’t my fault.
I’ve mixed lemons with salt,
But, I’ve searched and can’t find elbow grease.”
/// The scrubbed pots would be used to cook pork,
but the new maid could not find a fork
for the famed Swedish chef,
who, she thought, must be deaf.
For he only would say, “Bork, bork, bork!”
