Food Glorious Food

Food Glorious Food - London Theatre Orchestra & Cast

Lyrics by：Bart

Composed by：London Theatre Orchestra

Is it worth the waiting for

If we live for eighty four

All we ever get is gruel

Every day we say our 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 digestion

Food glorious food

We're anxious to try it

Three banquets a day

Our favorite diet

Just picture a great big steak

Fried roasted or stewed

Oh food magical food wonderful

Food marvelous food

Food glorious food

What is there more handsome

Gulped swallowed or chewed

Still worth a king's ransom

What is it we dream about

What brings on a sigh

Piled pieahes and cream about

Six feet high

Food glorious food

Eat right through the menu

Just loosen your belt

Two inches and then you

Work up a new appetite

In this interlude

The 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 thinking 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 brood

On food

Magical food

Wonderful food

Marvellous food

Fabulous food

Glorious food
