Gotta Eat
Location
Everybody shuffle in line
Got your gold nuggets in hand? Teeth caps? Money signs?
Pile up the bread,
the fried chicken, the roasted chicken, the broasted chicken, the grilled chicken,
the chicken fingers, the tater tots, the fish sticks, the pizza,
the milk cartons.
Pause for a second
Listen to American mothers shouting on behalf of their fat children
All the weight from their checkbooks
go straight to their kids' waists, look at them,
the poor things, it's all your fault, it's all those lunchladies
giving them food they don't want
giving them food
giving
Out the line you go with your tray
Move along now, little doggies.
Somewhere there's a hungry mouth to feed.
