Oliver - Food Glorious Food 2 lyrics

Is it worth the waiting for if we live till eighty-four 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 pease 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.............!!!!
