Food
Food food food
A joy of life that you can’t deny
Food food food
There is no question of why
Food food food
I’ve got a taste to be satisfied
Food food food
there’s so much of it to like
French Italian or chi a nese
Polish , irish or greek
All the worlds got it’s own cuisine
Cause everyone’s gotta eat
Food food food
A joy of life that you can’t deny
Food food food
There is no question of why
Fry it , Bake it or Grill it up
Make it spicy or not
Cook it up the way we love
Boil it in a big pot
Call it any thing that you will
Grub, chow or a nosh
Taste it , baste it , just don’t waste it
Covered with a sauce
Food food food
A joy of life that you can’t deny
Food food food
There is no question of why
Food food food
I’ve got a taste to be satisfied
Food food food
there’s so much of it to like
nothings better than
just sitting down to a feast
a dinner date , with salad plates
and pasta, turkey and beef
and how I love a grand dessert
it tops it off everytime
breakfast lunch and a dinner such
a great joy to dine

Gamberoni Casalinga Siciliana Sung by Ryland Angel
Ryland Angel and Michael Murphy
This classic Italian recipe provides the lyrical levity for a Sicilian family favorite meal.
Gam-ber-oni Casalinga Siciliana
it’s a secret recipe from my grand mama
shhh- She don’t like for me to tell you but I’m gonna
So don’t write it down don’t tell anyone
You see her comin’ you tell me to run
Everybody! La la la la la la Hey!
Start it off with your favorite 10 to 12-inch sauté pan
Heat the olive oil medium-high ‘til almost smoking.
Add the onion and celery cook until it’s softened
Then add the tomatoes, the capers the currants,
the pine nuts, marsala, the red pepper flakes, add in your
fennel seeds, throw in the bay leaf and bring it to a boil
Gam-ber-oni Casalinga Siciliana
it’s a secret recipe from my grand mama
shhh- She don’t like for me to tell you but I’m gonna
So don’t write it down don’t tell anyone
You see her comin’ you tell me to run
Everybody! La la la la la la Hey!
Lay the shrimp in the tomato mix in one layer
If you hear gramma comin’ say your prayers
Cover up over lower the heat, and simmer for four minutes.
Take off of the heat, salt and pepper to taste,
Leave for 5 minutes to sit in one place.
We got some time pour out some wine and everybody sing
Gam-ber-oni Casalinga Siciliana
it’s a secret recipe from my grand mama
shhh- She don’t like for me to tell you but I’m gonna
So don’t write it down don’t tell anyone
You see her comin’ you tell me to run
You think I’m kidding but she got a gun
Gramma got eyes in the back of her head
She catches us and we gonna be dead
Everybody! La la la la la la Hey!
You think that it looks good just wait until you taste
But you tell Gramma’s secret she gonna break your face
You can serve her dish nice and warm or you can let cool
Better keep quiet I heard a noise and Gramama no fool
(Gramma Appears!) (audience) Run! Oh No! Better take it to go!

Tea for two Sung by Jacqueline Horner-Kwiatek

Coffee Sung by Jacqueline Horner-Kwiatek
Written by Bach

With Wine (I Drink)
Relax and raise your glass to celebrate life and sing the praises of gods gift of the grape.
With Wine (I drink)
With wine I drink to you and I
With sweetest nectar from the vines
I celebrate the quiet times
With just a glass
With pinot nior or chardonnay
Sauvignon blanc or cabernet
A perfect ending to the day
With grace and class
A meal is so much more complete
With dry or tart or smokey, sweet
A bottle split ‘tween you and me
Can spark up such romance

Just A Little Cheese Sung by Hai-Ting Chinn
Written by Ryland Angel & Maria Christensen
A mouthwatering melody that oozes the velvety richness of a grilled cheese sandwich.
JUST A LITTLE CHEESE
When my soup’s a little boring
When my sandwich needs a lift
When I feel there’s something missing
From my favorite omelette
I add a little gouda swiss or cheddar
Because a little cheese can make the whole world better
Cheese cheese , how I love you cheese
Add you in and flavors such a breeze
Throw it into all my recipies
And that’s all it needs
Just a little ….
Cheese cheese such a lovely nosh
Call it queso or call it fromage
I don’t care just call it what you want
Shred it or melt it just please give me some (cheese!)
You can get from a cow
Or you can get it from goat
You can get it from a cottage in the hills somewhere remote
I don’t care if its blue or green or yellow
Or if it’s gruyere, munster or mozzarella
