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’s not a crust, 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! |
Peas, 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 |
Glorious food |
Food, glorious food! |
What is there more handsome? |
Gulped, swallowed or chewed -- |
Still worth a king’s ransom! |
What is it we dream about? |
What brings on a sigh? |
Piled pieahes and cream, about |
Six feet high! |
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! |
