Frito Poems


Dois

Dois

Seja a vida 
ou os negócios
existem dois modos de vivê-los:
1 - Como pessoa prática
que Só enxerga um pássaro 
se o tiver numa gaiola 
ou a comê-lo frito
e
2 - como se fosse artista sensível,
cujas tintas dizem ao pintor 
que tal vermelho ou rosa 
estão certos 
na composição 
de um quadro
que você quer fazer
mais e mais.

Premium MemberEat, Drink, and Be Merry

Oreos with chocolate chips
  Potato sticks with onion dip

Drip the cheese all over those fries
  Three scoops of ice cream and apple pie
 
Frito-lay corn chips beside a guacamole-filled bowl
  Don't forget those Boston-creme doughnut...holes

And how about all the candies and the chocolate cake
  Something's got to give you a slight stomach ache

These are merely appetizers, of course
  Now it's time for the game, to eat like a horse

First comes the turkey, with stuffing and butttered yams
  Along with sides of potato fritters and honey-glazed ham

Throw in a few sirloin steaks with sauteed onions, hot off the grill
  A Reuben sandwich with sauerkraut'll give your taste buds a thrill

Now -- how foolish of me! -- I've forgotten the drinks
  Left them in a cooler under the kitchen sink ...
So let's down a few maragaritas and some imported red wine
  Y'all leave some room for beer chasers --- in a mug or a stein

Yes, fans, it's under two months till Super Bowl Sunday
  Better start dieting now, so you'll still fit in your undies!

Not Anymore

Lookin Down the Highway
Staring at the bay and chewing on Frito Lay
I'm failing I'm failing
I wish I was sailing

Get away from me
Whenever you talk, it's telling me where to aim at
I swear sometimes I want to hit you with a bat
Screw you, I already know I'm fat
Screw life, it's a waste of time,
Fo all y'all depressed, it's the right time

This isn't supposed to be a good rhyme
Don't feel bad at me, look at you
You smell like poo, all you do is scare and say boo
Get away from me, you know I'm not skeet

Choices, choices
Potato, tomato
Taquito, burrito
Frito, nacho
What a person to do?
I think I have one each night
until I no longer have choices
then I stop eating?
Heck, no
start over
Avocado, mango...

Frustration

Women frustrate me, like Frito bags
dipped in engine grease; quite unsolvable.
But I love them regardless, queens or hags;
life without them would be improbable,
with their constant nags and lovable chaffs,
their love for jeans that cost more than my car.
They are good for company, smiles and  laughs-
just make sure you pay for their drinks at the bar.

But I grow tired of the games that they play
Failures have led my patience to decay.
One took a jackhammer straight to my heart
The other chopped me up like liver tart 
 now I suppose I would prefer a man
 they are much easier to understand.

Soggy chips cheese meat and grease
My intestines boil
