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!
