A Jar of Mustard and Ketchup Too

Yes you are lacking in basic culinary skills your cooking is wanting for a flavor thrill And heaven knows you'll never make a savory dish so close your eyes and use the chefs last wish Food too plain and bland what do you do get that jar of mustard and ketchup too Don't be shy tastebuds counting on you open that jar of mustard and ketchup too Slather it, smear it, pour it on strong the more you use the less it taste wrong The vigor of mustard on your tongue that sweetness of ketchup sings a song Disguise that flavorless gunk on your plate pile high those condiments for goodness sake Make it bearable and a eatable chow with sky high food prices can't be wasteful now So be grateful and thankful that you are able to chew your mediocre insipid rather mild boring cooked food By simply adding to the table what you must do a jar of mustard and ketchup too.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Maybe I could slather some on my face too and shave with it as well! Fun write, Fritz. Cheers, Gershon
