Lili McGovern: honey V's

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)

Lili watches way too much Food Network TV and Vicky's always saying, "I wish I were a vegetarian" so we started musing....

OH, OH, OH
I wish I was a vegetarian
Not a slave to a carnivore regiment
I wish I was a vegetarian
Then I'd be free from meat

The smell pulls me from my room
A harbinger of my doom
I know the life this creature led
all the chemicals it was fed
still my mouth begins to water
like a wolf before the slaughter

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
I could eat all the pasta I want
(no meatballs!)
My friends will all say, "You're gaunt!"
(cat calls!)
My teeth would be gristle-free
For Thanksgiving we'll roast Tofurkey
but I simply have to confess
I really am obsessed
with Rachel's Chicken Cordon Bleu
Paula's Chops w/ sweet cashews
Tyler's Pepper Steak au jus!
Sarah Palin's stew of caribou!

CHORUS

This talk of food has famished me
What can I grab that's fast n’ easy?
A carrot won't fill me up
brocolli don't go with ketchup
A hamburger coke & fries you say?
It is the All-American way

OH, OH, OH
I’m glad I’m not a vegetarian
I'll never shed the greasy barbarian
I’m glad I’m not a vegetarian
'Cause everything... tastes better with meat
