We Sold Our Restaurants In Cyprus
Upanishads and Vedic verse
Are not for such as we
Who, baited by the rabble's curse
Sate charge cards on each spree
For fear of finding something worse
Than baubles brother bourgeoisie
We emulate the tireless nurse
And pray on bended knee
'Oh spare us our stupidity
Sweet Shiva, multi-armed
Our kisses and cupidity
'Tis but ourselves we've harmed
Uzbekistan and Vegan fare
Will cause us to lose weight
A smidgeon here, a smidgeon there
Let's nibble on fish bait
Until our frames are lean and spare
And our spare tires deflate
Until we cease to care
Who only stand and wait
Forgive us our rapacity
Athene, ever wise
We'll n'eer reach full capacity
And stay our former size
