Barbequed ribs with the best sauce in town
pancakes with syrup and fries golden brown
Fried eggs with bacon and crisp onion rings
these are a few of my most favorite things
Cream-filled donuts and warm apple pie
peanuts and hazelnuts and cookies piled high
whipped cream and mozzarella cheese strings
these are a few of my most favorite things
Spaghetti with meatballs and sun-ripe tomatoes
extra old cheddar and double-baked potatoes
succulent mushrooms and buffalo wings
these are a few of my most favorite things
When hunger strikes
When rumblings start
When my belly aches
these are a few of my most favorite things
topped off with shakes

succulent mushrooms and buffalo wings
these are a few of my most favorite things
When hunger strikes
When rumblings start
When my belly aches
these are a few of my most favorite things
topped off with shakes
When hunger strikes
When anxiety starts
When my belly aches
these are a few of my most favorite things
topped off with shakes
When my belly aches
these are a few of my most favorite things
topped off with shakes

Superb! Yep, I couldn't help but sing it, and it all fit, too. I loved the original; I love yours. Greal parody, Emile.
