Sucking Sweets Sticky toffee

I wrote this in a moment of madness, having looked out of my car window whilst waiting for school to finish, to be confronted by the rather overworked jaw of a woman truly enjoying a sweet!  So beware you never know who is watching you!!!!!

Chewing a sweet
Is always a very nice treat
But what would happen
 If you were to meet
A long lost lover on the street
You can bet your bottom dollar
That in panic you'd spit it out
To watch with horror as it
Landed on his shirt collar
And think how embarrassing that would be!
How ridiculous to be seen
As the sort of girl who sucks sweets
And spits them out at people on the street
But you can't hold a conversation
Whilst your mouth is held in concentration
Fighting with a toffee
Which has suddenly taken on a huge proportion
Now don't you wish you had chosen a smaller portion?
But there you go, your mouth is stuck
Toffee jammed, just your luck!
So what is a girl supposed to do
You can only finish that sweet with
A real hard chew
Then heartily apologise
Looking him right between the eyes
Show him that you're not the sort of girl
Who'd lead him into a merry whirl
Or you could proffer the bag of toffee
And mime an act of a cup of coffee
I'm sure you'll both get on just fine and dandy
When you both have finished chewing candy
