To Lighten the Day

I love a bacon sandwich 
and I'm partial to a sausage or two
I can't think of anything nicer 
Than a dumpling with beef stew .

Then I pulled a vegetarian 
A real tree hugging babe 
She tried to tell me eating meat
Would put me in my grave .

Urgh , What is that you're eating 
You're a murderer she cried .
No its not a human ,Just a rabbit
I replied .

How did that rabbit die 
Now she was really in a mood 
It died of friggin starvation 
because she ate all its food.
