Eat Mediterranean â?? (a parody of Hotel California)
On a scale, what do I weigh, my minds on an eclaire Warm smell of a deep dish, rising up through the air Then I thought for an instant, is it wrong is it right Atkins, Ornish, Jenny Craig screw them I had to have one more bite
There she stood in the doorway. She rang the dinner bell And I was thinking to myself, "This could be Heaven or this could be Hell" Then she lit up the Barby and she gave me a tray Five courses down the corridor, And I heard her say
Why donâ??t you just eat Mediterranean? Such a healthy plate (Such a healthy plate) All the food tastes great Thereâ??s plenty of great food if you just eat Mediterranean It includes red wine (It includes red wine) And itâ??s not well defined
Her mind was brilliantly gifted, her body gave me the bends Proposing lots of healthy, tasty food, and thank god not a cleanse How we danced in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. The food delicious and tender, then we shared a baguette
Then she called up the waiter "Please bring us some wine" I said, "I havenâ??t had a guilt free meal since nineteen sixty nine" And still those voices admonish from far away They wake me up in the middle of the night But then I hear her say
Why donâ??t you just eat in moderation? Just donâ??t stuff your face (Just donâ??t stuff your face) You might lose some weight Youâ??ll feel way better if you just eat in moderation Add some exercise (a little exercise) Then youâ??ve earned some fries
Bread, fruits and some veggies Olive oil, fish and rice And she said "Donâ??t choose food like prisoners in fear, based on ill-informed adviceâ? So in the dining chambers, We gathered for the feast We ate a balanced meal with grains and greens That even had some red meat
These eggs give me pleasure, Howâ??s this coffee I adore? Should I put this sugar package back And go weigh myself once more? "Relax," said the night man, â??about salt and fats we were deceivedâ? But when it comes to nutrition, who really can you believe?
