The Lyrics

well I've got on my bouffiant
and it's french fries that I want, for my dinner
do I have a french poutine,
or beef gravy fresh and lean, they're both winners

cheese or gravy? who-a-o-ao-ao
cheese or gravy?
do I want that cheese or gravy
indecision this time

gravy gets into the plate and it's tasting kinda great,
but it's messing
and I always liked the cheese, it's a taste that's sure to please
potato dressing

cheese or gravy? who-a-o-ao-ao
cheese or gravy?
do I want that cheese or gravy
indecision this time

waiter's here I have to choose, I want them both why should I lose
if I can eat them
if I approach it like a war, battle plan is just eat more,
then I'll defeat them

as I spin these thoughts about, order both and bring them out
it's not easy
if the gravy's splashed about, then the cheese it will win out
if it's not greasy

cheese or gravy? who-a-o-ao-ao
cheese or gravy?
do I want that cheese or gravy
indecision this time

cheese or gravy? who-a-o-ao-ao
cheese or gravy?
do I want that cheese or gravy
indecision this time

But what happened to the 'bridge'? ???

You like French fries? And poutine? But they're FRENCH! The bloody weasels! Death to the French! That is what you people believe, isn't it? Of course, having been to Montreal, I can say this: Anybody who likes poutine (French fries covered with gravy and some truly foul cheese curd) has some serious issues. Yuuuuuuuuck! In this case, "cherish" is NOT the word! (Though "grease" may be the word.)

Michael, you have some serious issues that go beyond this forum. Seek professional help before you slam the writers on here. This is only for entertainment.

I gave you highest marks, but you've got entirely too much time on your hands. And thank you so much for calling them FRENCH fries, instead of something stupid like the fast food restaurants are calling them these days.

I believe a lot of people, including myself, have too much time on our hands, Chrissy. I commend those that can have two jobs and/or children and still submit a funny song or two.
