Oliver: Food, Glorious Food
Is it worth the waiting for? If we live 'til eighty four All we ever get is gru... el! Ev'ry day we say our prayer Will they change the bill of fare? Still we get the same old gru... el! There is not a cust, not a crumb can we find, Can we beg, can we borrow, or cadge, But there's nothing to stop us from getting a thrill When we all close our eyes and imag... ine
Food, glorious food! Hot sausage and mustard! While we're in the mood Cold jelly and custard! Pease pudding and saveloys! What next is the question? Rich gentlemen have it, boys In-di-gestion!
Food, glorious food! We're anxious to try it. Three banquets a day Our favourite diet!
Just picture a great big steak Fried, roasted or stewed. Oh, food, Wonderful food, Marvellous food, Glorous food.
Food, glorious food! What is ther emore handsome? Gulped, swallowed or chewed Still worth a kin's ransom. What is it we dream about? Wat brings on a sigh? Piled pieahes and cream, about Six feet high! Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Food, glorious food! Eat right through the menu. Just loosen your belt Two inches and then you Work up a new appetite. In this interlude -- The food, Once again, food Fabulous food, Glorious food.
Food, glorious food! Don't care what it looks like Burned! Underdone! Crude! Don't care what the cook's like. Just thinking of growing fat Our senses go reeling One moment of knowing that Full-up feeling!
Food, glorious food! What wouldn't we give for That extra bit more That's all that we live for Why should we be fated to Do nothing but brood On food, Magical food, Wonderful food, Marvellous food, Fabulous food,
Beautiful food,
Glorious food
