You can't go wrong with sugar

I don't care what nutritionists desire us to think;
You can't go wrong with sugar in a carbonated drink.
That fizzinated bev'rage just aint right without the treacle;
take it out and what you have is very nearly fecal.
Sugar from the cane or beet or even ground up dates
will never tread upon my dreams (to quote from Mr. Yeats).
I always knew corn syrup was a vagabond ingredient;
just a cheapjack substitute that hardly was expedient.
Now we're back to good old sugar in our many treats;
this should cause rejoicing in a million million tweets!
Throw out that Diet Pepsi and start guzzling sucrose.
(Who cares that at the dentist we'll be paying through the nose!)
