Too Many Cooks

Too many cooks, who should never look to cook,
Too many cooks, who should never start to cook,
Too many cooks, who should never be paid to cook,

Too many cooks, without any recipes to cook,
Too many cooks, without any clues to cook,
Too many cooks, without any boots to cook.
 
Too many cooks, with drugs to cook,
Too many cooks, with books to cook,
Too many cooks, with storms to cook.

Too many cooks, that have no stomach to cook,
Too many cooks, that have no energy, to cook,
Too many cooks, that have no food to cook.

Too many cooks, who are too ill to cook,
Too many cooks, who are too frightened to cook,
Too many cooks, who are forcing me to cook.
