What's for breakfast Ma?
Is it bacon and eggs,
Tea without dregs.
Muesli, Weet-Bix?
Can we get ice-cream and slowly take licks?
What's for lunch Ma?
Is it baked beans on toast?
A crispy chicken roast
Can we eat our guts out
On American fast food restaurant In and out?
What's for dinner Ma?
Is it T-Bone steak?
Fish from a lake?
At this point, it drove mum crazy
She still is quite hazy
What's for breakfast Ma?
