The Glutton
In the afternoon, I want to eat, head to the square
See if the snack is still warm
And it’ll be nice to try that hot dog
I know I do this to satisfy myself
I know that lunch is the best part of the day
And the smell guides me to the table
Now it’s so close, see
The food truck line attracts me
Of our dishes, it’s what I miss the most
When we used to eat the same meal together
Where’s my burger now
Besides right here inside me?
We cooked right without meaning to -
It was just the spice that was missing
It’s going to be hard to stick to a diet
Because the food is with me all the time
When I look at the menu
There’s something that says
- Hunger continues, and giving in isn’t foolishness
Since the pots are here
What I can do is serve myself
I want to fill my belly at least
Remember that the plan was to eat well?
- Hey, look what I found: french fries!
I know I do this to satisfy myself
I know that lunch is the best part of the day
And the smell guides me to the table
