Cauliflower Parmesan
I hear the chicken's still long overdue
Cauliflower parmesan
Fresh cut from the garden
Taking what I have into my hands
Inflation rages, battles drawn
Life as we once knew it
Will not return for quite some time
Institutions come and gone
Who could have believed it
So much depends on one another’s grace
Civilizations come and gone
Who could have then perceived it
So much depends on plans that fade away
When we lost love
When we shunned caring
We just forgot the many simple ties
When we chose war
We chose injustice
When we catered to a never-ending lie
Arugula and peas will do
Dinner salad for the evening
Tomatoes not quite coming into bloom
The family moves closer in
We can all squeeze tight together
Soon we may be running out of room
Institutions come and gone
Who could have believed it
So much depends on one another’s grace
Civilizations come and gone
Who could have then perceived it
So much depends on plans that fade away
When we lost love
When we shunned caring
We just forgot the many simple ties
When we chose war
We chose injustice
When we catered to a never-ending lie
So it’s bright poblano soup that has been brewing
Canned black beans and chilies have to do
I hear the chicken’s still long overdue.
