Me too.  Is it us, or is it just true for all songs?

^ Oh, sorry about that. You'll need to find another food truck then... Tongue

While browsing through my collection I actually noticed that there are much more songs about drinks/drinking than about food... Or is that just my collection...? Beer Party

So, in order to anger JD and his rule #1... Fay Lovsky - Food Is The Enemy:

And as an echo to Christian's submission (and ignoring rule #1 - how can I have missed that one...? ;):

Van Halen - Ice Cream Man:

The Tubes - Sushi Girl



Fat Les - Vindaloo



Vindaloo was a #2 UK single in 1998 and was written as a parody of football anthems, but has since been adopted as a popular anthem of its own. The video is fun and noteworthy as a parody of the Verve's video of their massive hit Bitter Sweet Symphony. If you haven't seen that video, here's a link.

https://youtu.be/1lyu1KKwC74

Edit to add: Breaking the two max rule, it's only 17 seconds long by American punk band the Descendents.

And another serious song (and some more translation work...). Not sure if this embed will work, because there seems to be an age restriction attached to this one - must be for kids only... (otherwise you can listen to it here)

Têtes Raides - Les dents (Teeth):


...and my translation of the lyrics:


I lost my teeth
In a ham-cheese sandwich
I lost hours
By looking for my teeth
My teeth are like butter
Time is like wind
I didn’t find back my hours
Nor the passage of time

After three quarters of an hour
I said myself it is time
To order a cheese-butter sandwich
With teeth

It was better before
When I still had my teeth
I also still had my hair
And the will not to die old

I lost my teeth
In a ham-cheese sandwich
Go for a cheese-butter sandwich
With teeth

After twenty quarters of an hour
I said myself it is high time
For a dry saussage-butter sandwich
With pickles in it

These pickles-ickles
It’s exciting-ing
When you have teeth-teeth
To give it a bite !

But that was way before
When I still had all my teeth
And I had a grand piano
And I ate tyres

I lost all, I burnt all, I sold all
Yes, everything disappeared, all sold off
I lost all on a raw ham sandwich

I’ve found my teeth
Who spent some good time
Next to the shopkeeper
Of living organs

Oh, it's a pity I already used King Missile's Eating People in an earlier poll...

So, to make things worse a song titled "Worst" (which means "sausage" in Dutch, as is explained at the beginning of the song...):

Pé Daalemmer & Rooie Rinus - Worst:


I'll give a translation of the lyrics, but these will remain just temporarily up here (my translation):

Sausage, it’s got everything
Sausage, it’s got everything
Pig sausages, sheep eyes, cow chin
I’d rather macrobiotic whole wheat macaroni
Bio-dynamic packed bell pepper
Add a free-range egg and an unsprayed orange as dessert

Sausage, it’s got everything
Sausage, it’s got everything
Yes, tasty sausages, from the end to the begin
I have so much fun with a turkey stick
I have so much fun with a meat croquette
A spring roll, an egg ball and fries with mayo sauce

Tomato ketchup, piccalilli, peanut sauce
All together with an onion
On my frikandel special

Sausage, it’s got everything
Sausage, yes it’s got everything
Sausage, liver sausage
Beer sausage
Dry sausage
Blood sausage
It’s got everything, sausage
Dry spicy sausage
Saxon liver sausage
Saxon liver sausage
Saxon liver sausage
Saxon liver sausage
Saxon liver sausage …
Sssssssssssssssssssssalami

Long or short, thick, thin, straight or curved
Cow intestines are holding it strong
Finely grind in your grinder four cow's eyes
Then nine lymph nodes and a pig's snout
Top it off with mix from Knorr
And for the creaminess a dash of beef blood

Sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage
Sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage
Sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage sausage
Sausage Sausage Sausage…

Hahaha, take this then:
Spliff - Carbonara. In fact this was probably their biggest hit, but not exactly their best song, at least not for prog fans, I suppose. They just hint at being quite good if they want to. This was my first love's favourite album when it came out.

By the way, I know some appreciate Nina Hagen here, Spliff were her former band.

No, but the song can't ONLY be about drink. FOOD is the major theme.

And...Ice Cream counts ! Since I have a bowl of chocolate ice cream almost every night I can't say no to that.



Spaghetti alla carbonara is one of the World's seven wonders.

But if you want to taste the genuine recipe, only in Rome and in some good restaurants you can eat them

OK well, for starters I try this one. It's not exactly about food in the first place, and no cooked food for sure.
But I hope it counts because it's about the ICE CREAM MAN, by Mary Coughlan.

I decided to do two kind of silly ones here.  First up is Robin Williamson and His Merry Band performing "Oh! That Gorgonzola Cheese," in a live performance.  



Next up is "I Like Bananas, )Because They Have No Bones)," by George Elrick.

Wake me up when someone does an interactive poll that includes prog.
 

  When we have one that is a prog one (and we have done so), they are posted in the Prog Polls section, as that is suited for that.  Those are in that section and are noted in the titles of the polls that they are "Interactive Polls."  

We have sometimes done lesser- known prog allowable in these polls, then it is stated so, this is up to the OP, per the way these are conducted.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
