SOUP  SPOON

It's basic.  It's uncomplicated. 
It's a simple silver soup spoon.

It does its job - plain and simple.
It gives its owner no problems.

She can concentrate on her kids.
She can sip soup while reading a novel.

French onion, tomato, pea soup,
it does its job no matter what….

Lord, a baby and a toll collector -
simple. The rest of us - complex.

We’re no silver spoons. Nope,
we’re more like mystery soup.
