Let's Enjoy This Feast - a Parody

{To be sung to the tune of "Beauty and the Beast" from the same musical}



Dinner bells, they chime
Calling out to me
Today's dish depends
On the market trends
I do feel hungry
Nothing's out of range
Yummy smells slow tease
Food's meant to be shared
So my mom declared
"Let's enjoy this feast"

What a tasty treat   
What a spicy mix     
What luscious meat    
What a dessert sweet
What delicious fix   

What a tasty treat   
What a spicy mix     
What luscious meat    
What a dessert sweet
What delicious fix       

Little bit of thyme
In your bowl of soup
I'm already hooked
Finding you can cook
Add another scoop
Certain as this bread
(Certain as this bread)
Rising from the yeast
Dinner bells, they chime
Eating ain't a crime
"Let's enjoy this feast"

Dinner bells, they chime
Eating ain't a crime
"Let's enjoy this feast"
"Let's enjoy this feast"
"Let's enjoy this feast"
