Food Show feeding frenzy...

Watch out fish...feeding frenzies...

You watch a school of fish
Thrash about in a feeding frenzy
Then go to a food show for your work
And man, the people show no endsy
To the eatathon, the feastfever
The gorge factor, forget about fear
Turkey rolls, and bagels, too
Cheesecakes and stuffed ordeuvres
Finger foods and some you use
Your entire body to taste
Toothpicks abound and little plates
And plastic forks for even steak
Wash it down with lots of liquids
In those tiny cups
I couldn't help but picture heads
Of fish on shoulders close up
Feeding Feeding feeding Yes
Until past all filled up!

I bet you get tired of seeing customers eating
constantly? They look like a bumch of fish heads? Oh well, they say we gottra eat.
This is funny, And man, the people show no endsy To the eatathon, the feastfever
The gorge factor,
Good one cuzz.........
