Here is Susan McCartney with The F Word


THE ‘F-WORD’

I’m fixated by the ‘F-Word’
It’s my reason to be
I think about it constantly
I bet you’re thinking
That this dame is sinking
Into the muck
With a focus on the f***!
You’d be wrong
I’m stringing you along
I’m not being rude
My ‘F-Word’ is food

When I was young
It was a different song
Not much of the ‘F-Word’ on the menu
Mostly potatoes and carrots in a stew
Fresh meat a luxury to chew
Chicken came once each December
Not fresh, tinned, I remember
A treat not so fantastic!
Out it slid in a slick of aspic

Salmon, canned, past its sell by date
Kept in the pantry just in case
Company came around to eat
For a fishy mashed up, sandwich treat
Post-war tins of ham and spam
Rusted, scarcely consumable
But handy in case of a funeral

I joined the Waffs and to other foods
My eyes opened
In ’68 the menu broadened
In the queue in the Mess
Says the chef with a face quite sly
‘Do you want stuffing?’
Little me, naïve, shy

Yes says I and the rest
Pile on that turkey breast
To 3 squares we were blessed
And rice came not as a pudding
Brown from the oven
But stirred and fried with prawns and spice
The magic of curry and rice

 Fried rice, rice honey
Curry spice, spice honey
It’s my vice, vice honey
Don’t ask me twice, twice honey
Don’t wanna be rude, rude honey
I’m in the mood, mood honey
Grilled or stewed, stewed honey
For some food, food
For food!

FOOD It’s my crack, horse,skunk my weed
Take me, take me
To my next feed
The other ‘F-Word’ is out of the window
Gimme a guy to make me a dinner
I wanna a man with a frying pan
Okay I’m hooked
My goose is cooked
I admit I’m fixated
And won’t be placated
With anything else but
FOOD!

Gimme grease, grease honey
Let me feast, feast honey
Gimme fries, fries honey
Giant size, size honey
Bake me cake, cake honey
Don’t make me wait, wait honey
I’m in the mood, mood honey
For some food, food honey
For food!
