Saved By the Dinner Bell

Saved by the (Dinner) Bell

So there’s the old woman lying in bed

with a Bible in hand and a gun to her head

She can’t see the point in waiting to die.

and is eagerly plotting her final good-bye.

But aromas of dinner are filling the room

with their mystical way of dispelling the gloom.

So she thinks she will wait until after the meal

(And admit it or not, that is how we all  feel.)

That life is much brighter and problems are solved

that life is worth living, when food is involved!
