Sung to the
tune of "Comedy Tonight."
(with apologies to Mr. Sondheim)
Something
with bacon, low fat forsaken
Something for everyone—a barbecue tonight.
Sausage and pork roll cooked over charcoal
Something for everyone—a barbecue tonight.
Nothing that's fish, nothing that's game
Just set a suckling over a flame.
Nothing au gratin, nothing that's rotten
Nothing but pigs and appetite
Shoulder cut or side meat, boiled jowls and
pigs' feet
Boston butt or fatback, pork rinds as a quick
snack—
(big finish
— slow kick
line)
No tiny bones, no mad cow curse,
Just some trichinosis at worse.
Big pork selection grilled to perfection.
Get out the citronella light.
Leftovers tomorrow—barbecue tonight!
