The Heist of the Kidney Beans

 

By Elton Camp

 

In Pascagoula, Mississippi a burglar did grab

Several times from the drug store some Lortab

The Fred’s store manager very angrily griped

Although Lortab was the only thing he swiped

 

The pharmacist decided he would make a decoy

So a funny trick was what he decided to employ

Thief came but the pharmacist wanted to throttle

He found only kidney beans in the Lorbab bottle

 

(Note:  true story)
