The Almighty Sandwich
It's the little things that matter
Butter me up and sandwich me with love
We may have no money, but fun we must
Find joy in simple, for the boy I am
Making food from hand as good as one can
Whatever there is, we make do
Nothing complex for creatures like me or you
Potato crisps, bananas, or jam
Not every person can afford ham
Leftover mess is the next day blessed
Christmas sandwiches are the best
Turkey, stuffing, and pigs rolled in blankets
This is my ode to the everyday sandwich
Hungry for the munchies, soft bread or crunchie
In a hurry or rush, sandwich prep is no fuss
Perfect for picnics, ball games and road trips
Loaves, rolls, patties or buns
All types of sandwiches, different types of fun
Wrapped, stacked, and stuffed in a backpack
Butty, batty, bap, down the hatch
For breakfast, lunch or dinner, a sandwich is a winner
Brown, white or rye, whatever catches your fancy
An everyday sandwich is all fine and dandy
If love is a fool, then I’m an idiot for a sandwich
Call me crazy, but there’s nothing better than a good ole sandwich
