The Lyrics

If you didn't know, the white truffle (a mushroom like fungus that grows only in Italy and Croatia) is a culinary delicacy and is actually extremely expensive. The most anyone's every paid was $330,000 for a single truffle weighing 1.5 kg! In this story, a personal chef's obsession with this particular fungus could leave him with more than just a bad taste in his mouth (which a white truffle would never do because they are indeed DELICIOUS!)
Intro: Yeah, gonna bring some flavor (Oooh yeah)
Yeah, gonna taste so nice!

Verse 1: Here it is!
The piece to make my dish better
From the name, mouths wetter (wetter!)
It’s earthiness, refines recipes all day
Try a slice of heaven won’t ya?
Bruschetta (‘schetta!)
Best ever
No not the tom-a-toes
Or the freshly grated cheese
From a fungus flavor grows
White truffles if you please, yeah

Chorus: Yeah! White truffle buy!
Has a better flavor
White truffle buy! I need’em badly! (Oooh yeah)
Yeah! White truffle buy!
Go ‘head take a bite!
White truffle buy! I want’em!
It’s just that easy bestow (flavor!)
Call up Italy on the phone (favor!)
Problem is they cost a lot of cheddar

Verse 2: Here at last! Sear it fast!
Sauté it the way I wanna
Taste it all the time
That fungus (love this!)
O-kay, so maybe
They’re a hefty price
That’s the cost of things to savor (Just spend all your silly paper)
Let me give a ballpark figure (‘bout twelve thousand for this dinner)
Tongue this (Scrumptious!)
Wo-o-ow!
Cheer up miss!
Promise that the flavor’s worth it
Taste it one more time
A zing that’s so divine
I know I won’t cook without it
No one here shall dine
Was unemployment lined, yeah!

Chorus: Yeah! White truffle buy!
Got my service waivered
White truffle buy! They taste so earthy (Oooh yeah!)
Yeah! White truffle buy!
So listen, please just take a bite!
White truffle buy! They’re worthy!
They’re not as pricey as I told (lesser!)
Just three-hundred grand for a kilo
Not like you can’t afford it though!
There’s always a way to make a bargain (I’m homeless lady!)

Screw the white truffle buy!

Chorus: No! White truffle buys!
There are some other flavors
White truffle buy! Don’t need’em (I’m sure we’ll get by)
No! White truffle buy!
I’ve heard morels are kind of nice!
Morels are nice! It’s better, baby
Shitake rice? It could be better
(There got to be something that’s better!)
Chanterelles sliced? It could be better (There’s nothing better than truffles!)
(There’s nothing better than truffles!)
Take my advice (Suckish!)
All mushrooms bite!
‘Cept truffles mainly!

Quite often they use pigs to hunt down these delicious treats. I wish you put something about that in here. Also there was an episode of The Simpsons where Bart Simpson had a nose that could hunt down truffles even better than most pigs (wish you could have put that in here too but that would have been a reference I bet a lot of people wouldn't get so that doesn't bug me as much). I never had a truffle and I don't think I have the cash to afford them but they do sound pretty yummy.

Well now, I dont think anyone has covered this topic in a parody, except maybe Martha Stewart during her prison time. Nicely done work for an odd topic.

This could be the theme to an episode of Iron Chef. It's getting difficult to find a unique topic for a food parody, but you did it.

(Artistry) This was a pretty good parody, despite not being really out-there funny, if that makes sense. Still, 555!

Wouldn't mind trying them if given the chance, but that'll never happen. Funny thing is that the security code is 555.

(SOTM) See above!

I don't think I'll be shelling out thousands of dollars for a fungus. I'm sure they taste great, but I'll have to pass. As for the parody, you did a really good job covering a pretty specific topic. Funny lines and a nice title switch, nice work!
