So you've been very hungry for quite a long time you're now at the table with food on your mind I set down before you a buffet of delight succulent entrees so good to the sight There's wine chilled on ice hors d'oeuvres on the plate appetizers so tempting you can hardly wait The salad is firm soups fragrant and hot the casserole's juicy the stews in the pot The veggies are steaming the meat looks so tender the gravy is running puree in the blender The pie and the cake look sweet and inviting your teeth start to quiver they're ready for biting into all this treasure that's spread on the table you need to eat soon while you still are quite able You're hunger is mounting you feel almost faint you tuck in your napkin grab hold to your plate You pass up the hors d'oeuvres the order of grace skip over the soup just give you more space Forget all the fanfare you grab what you can tonight you you're my sweet potatoe and meat man You've bypassed the foreplay the etiquette's of love you've pushed it aside with a hungry lust shove Made way for the main course I don't really mind we'll sample the appetizer at some other time. . Bypassing the etiquettes of love...... . |
