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!

About the Author
Neville Raper invented You Tube, has swum the channel twice and is a habitual liar.
He lives in Yorkshire, where just like the locals, he says what he likes and likes what he says.
Broadcaster, Author, blogger, Neville is an occasional stand-up, and regular sit down.
Message from the Author.
Hi, thank you for buying this book unless you stole it, then shame on you.
Seriously, I hope you enjoy the stories within. A lot of people ask where I get the ideas from so I’ve taken the liberty of sharing the inspiration of each one. I hope that this may inspire you to write your own.
I’d like to say that this has been a long hard road to get to this point, but honestly, it hasn’t. I find writing a pleasure and having my work read a joy.
My ultimate goal is to write something that I would like to read and by doing so, hopefully, something you will enjoy reading as well.
So sit back, dim the lights, but not so much that you can’t read, and come with me on a journey.
These are all stories of ‘what if.' for isn’t that what life is all about?
Yours Forever
Neville
Random Joke
Just finished watching the Women's football and I'm not sure what to think.
The diving, the cheating, the childish behaviour...football just isn't the same without it.
