Pop-Pop was reading to Lisa one night,

But something the old man said gave her a fright:

When she told him just where her teleporter was at,

He said, "I will not be around to see that."

She thought, "I'll defy Pop-Pop's death by innovation!".

She tried her hardest but only got sleep deprivation.

However, the next morning, she read in a book,

About a village in Italy and said, "Hey, Lily, look!

The people here live to be a hundred years old."

Lily didn't pay attention to what she'd been told.

Lisa took Pop-Pop to the mall for a walk,

So that, with activity, he wouldn't balk,

And he'd hopefully live to be a hundred and two.

She rode on a kiddie ride and used a lasso,

To attach him to the ride and make him run fast,

So that he'd be active and his lifespan would last.

His friends had meat and potatoes on their dishes,

But Lisa made Pop-Pop get given raw fishes.

She made his room hot and the swimming pool cold,

Then said, "Follow these instructions and do as you're told."

Then, Lisa Loud decided to spy,

And Pop-Pop's behaviour caught the girl's eye.

He ate pancakes, got pedicures, and didn't run,

And he swam in warm water 'cause he found it more fun.

So Lisa went home and invented a suit,

That would keep all of his vital signs absolute.

Pop-Pop said, "Wearing this suit is OK,"

But he had to charge it for fifteen hours a day!

And it could get damaged from the sun or the moon,

And he couldn't touch people anytime soon,

Because that could damage the suit he had on.

Pop-Pop said, "I know that you don't want me gone.

You're very clever and death can be sad,

But what's the point of having a long life if it's bad?".

Lisa said, "Fine, you don't have to wear it anymore.",

And Pop-Pop went back to the life he had before.
