Restaurant Affair

 I wrote this earlier this week (I think it was Monday 6th January). Dedicated to my food love. It is meant as a song but, as I can't write music, it's identifying as a poem.

Restaurant Affair

We steal a kiss together

Hiding at the back of the cellar

We both know that this can't go anywhere 


We're sneaking around in the kitchen

Trying to make sure nobody's listening

We both know we risk getting caught


The creeping around, it excites me

But I'll lose everything if they find me

Having a restaurant affair


The chef almost started a fire

The food is burning, so's my desire

We both know we shouldn't be here


It's becoming an addiction

But not one that I want fixing

I know it needs to end soon


With every noodle devoured

With hot sauce or sweet and sour

Having a restaurant affair

Doo doooo be do be dooo

This popped up in a Facebook memory from 11th January 2013. It's to the tune of Mambo No. 5.


A little bit of tennis on the Wii

A little bit of drinking cups of tea

A little bit of Wordsworth in the book

A little linguistics, take a look

A little bit of lunch then I suppose

It'll be time to wash some clothes

A little bit of tv after noon

Then my little boys will be home soon...


Doo doooo be do be doooo...
