an astounding dishtruly
is singapore fried noodles
for this certainly confounds me
without a doubt it astounds me
you see it in London,
where everyone nurses a pint of beer
and it appears so much, even in
Washington, District of Columbia
stringy bits of noodle
hiding burnt clumps of egg
pathetic pieces of prawn
on a soggy beansprout lawn
they call out to me
from rows upon rows of microwaveable food
"Please eat me!!"
But I don't think i could
For chow down on that,
is something i just can't do,
for if i accommodate,
it's a beeline for the loo
See, no such thing exists in Singapore
It is only for the tourists, along with the folklore
All types of noodles, we do have it is true
from laksa to mee siam and char kway teow too
but no singapore fried noodles please,
that send me to the loo.
