Some singers sing of ladies' eyes	A
And some of ladies lips	B
Refined ones praise their ladylike ways	C
And course ones hymn their hips	B
The Oxford Book of English Verse	D
Is lush with lyrics tender	E
A poet I guess is more or less	F
Preoccupied with gender	E
Yet I though custom call me crude	G
Prefer to sing in praise of food	G
Food	G
Yes food	G
Just any old kind of food	G
Pheasant is pleasant of course	H
And terrapin too is tasty	I
Lobster I freely endorse	H
In pate or patty or pasty	I
But there's nothing the matter with butter	E
And nothing the matter with jam	J
And the warmest greetings I utter	E
To the ham and the yam and the clam	J
For they're food	I
All food	I
And I think very fondly of food	I
Through I'm broody at times	K
When bothered by rhymes	K
I brood	I
On food	I
Some painters paint the sapphire sea	I
And some the gathering storm	L
Others portray young lambs at play	M
But most the female form	L
Twas trite in that primeval dawn	N
When painting got its start	I
That a lady with her garments on	O
Is Life but is she Art	I
By undraped nymphs	P
I am not wooed	I
I'd rather painters painted food	I
Food	I
Just food	I
Just any old kind of food	I
Go purloin a sirloin my pet	I
If you'd win a devotion incredible	Q
And asparagus tips vinaigrette	I
Or anything else that is edible	Q
Bring salad or sausage or scrapple	Q
A berry or even a beet	I
Bring an oyster an egg or an apple	Q
As long as it's something to eat	I
If it's food	I
It's food	I
Never mind what kind of food	I
When I ponder my mind	I
I consistently find	I
It is glued	I
On food	I
