Its measly size, its measly wecht
The contents I can hardly check
Still, its politic’lly correct
To serve the few
Wha feel that eatin’ meat’s no richt
Whit can ye do?
“Don’t eat meat it’s far too risky”
Says some wummin frae San Franciscae
Nae wunner she’s no actin’ frisky
It’s awfy sad
We’ll soon hae alcohol-free whisky
Or some new fad
It’s allergy this and intolerance that,
Diet, detox, low carb tat
You’ll soon jist hiv tae eat yer hat
Gie it a chew
It’s high in fibre and low in fat
An’ recycled too
Let’s not lose oor joy tae eat
Be it nuts, fruit, grains or meat
Oor time is short, we shouldnae greet
But mak the most
Of ev’ry meal however fleet
Let’s raise a toast
So in our world of greenhouse gasses
Service culture, kissing asses
Embrace our new food for the masses
Like onion bhajees.
Here’s to it now, please raise your glasses
The VEGGIE HAGGIS!
