i'm plagued by vegetarians

no cats and dogs

i'm not a veterinarian

strictly collard greens and a occasional steak

goes on my plate

asparagus tips look yummy

yummy

yummy

candied yams inside my tummy

a collage of good eats

some snacks or nice treats

apple sauce and some nice red beets

this is what we snack on when we're questin'

no second guessin

now drop the beat

so i can talk about my favorite tastings

the food that is the everlasting

see i'm not fasting

i'm gobbling

like a dog on turkey

beef jerky

slim jims

i eat sometimes

i like lemons and limes

and if not that

take it the road see and the salad sopped

sit back

relax

listen to some hip hop

gum drops and gummy bears tease my eyes

a sight for sore ones and some bore pies

and other goodies that are filled with goop

with fried apple roots

delectable delights

control my appetites

mine is for me

right

but i know what i like

chicken for lunch

chicken for my dinner

chicken

chicken

chicken

i'm a finger lickin winner

when breakfast time comes

i don't recognize

pig in the pan or a pair of bogey chides

mixed with stewed tomatoes

home fried potatoes

or anything with flair
