American Cheese…

I could eat it till it falls from my knees,

Till it did come out at the same time I take a pee,

Or till it did fall out of my ears or overflow from my nose,

I could eat American cheese forever and always, god only knows…

When one does buy cheese in other countries,

Do they call it American or do they call it their country name,

Like if I were to buy cheese in England, would they call it British cheese…?

I wonder if it would be different if it came from the milk of a mad cow,

Would cheese then be considered to be angry chow?

Or if it did come from China, would we then call it cheese of the tao?

As long as it does not come from a cat,

Don’t want myself to start to in any way, meow…

So the question has been put to you,

Oh learned poets & intellectual philosophers,

What does American cheese get called outside the United States?

And would it be different if it were to come from a mad cow?

Please impart this knowledge, or I will find myself in dire straights…
