Food Glorious Food 2 lyrics

is it worth the waiting for
if we live till 84
all we ever get is gruel
everyday we say a prayer
will they change the bill of fare
still we get the same old gruel
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 imagine

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
3 banquets a day our faveourite 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 handsom
gulped, swallowed, or chewed
still worth a king`s randsom
what is it we dream about
what brings on a sigh
piled peaches and cream about
SIX FEET HIGH!!!

Food Glorious food eat right through the menu
just losen your belt
2 inches and then you
work up a new appetite
in this interlude
then 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 thinkin` 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 grude
oh food,magical food, wonderful food, marvellous food, fabulous food,
beautiful food, glou-ri-ous fooooooooood..............!!!!
