Pasta

Pasta is for tea
I hope you don’t mind
Pasta is my favourite
You better not steal mine!

Tomato sauce with onion
Put it on my plate
I’ll lick it all up
Just don’t make me wait!

Bring up the pasta
Come on NOW!!!,
I know you have it
Don’t make me growl

Now the pasta is all gone
I’ll have to wait one more day
I push in my chair and
Put my plate and spoon away.
