It Laid Heavy On My Stomach

Sung to the tune of: "He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother" The spice was strong The pasta was cooked too long The garlic was everywhere, everywhere And I know, meatballs were a big mistake It laid heavy on my stomach I ate too much Butter and bread and such The garlic was everywhere, everywhere And I know, meatballs were a big mistake It laid heavy on my stomach If I lay down at all I’ll get up with nausea And then it’s up all night that’s what garlic will cause ya I know, cause I’m still belching It laid heavy on my stomach

A fun and enjoyable read, Mike. Always give second thought to those meatballs, or they will give second thought to you!
