| Parody Written by: | Royce Miller |
Has anybody here seen a spice called aniseed?
Can you tell me why there's none?
You feed alot of inmates
But the food tastes just like dung
I just looked for spice and there's none
Anybody here seen a spice called cloves?
Can you tell me why there's none?
You feed alot of inmates
But this soup just has no zip
I just gave that tureen a flip
Anybody here seen some stuff called allspice?
Please don't tell me that there's none!
you feed alot of inmates
But this pot roast just ain't done
Tastes like some old dry, dirty sponge
Can't you just smell my cinnamon cookies?
Didn't I cook gourmet fare for you and me?
And when I'm free
I'm gonna fill my house with thyme and cumin...
Anybody here seen that gal named Martha?
Can you tell me where she's gone?
I heard she was walking back to her cell
With spices she hid in the john
Can you tell me why there's none?
You feed alot of inmates
But the food tastes just like dung
I just looked for spice and there's none
Anybody here seen a spice called cloves?
Can you tell me why there's none?
You feed alot of inmates
But this soup just has no zip
I just gave that tureen a flip
Anybody here seen some stuff called allspice?
Please don't tell me that there's none!
you feed alot of inmates

Nice twist at the end. 555!
Nicely spicy parody, Royce. Your verse about Martha can be read in a totally different kind of way, too .... historically, inside prisons, inmates have from time to time consumed nutmeg to get a marijuana-like high. Nutmeg contains myristicin, a chemical similar to mescaline, the hallucinogen found in the peyote cactus. I've never gotten high on nutmeg, but a friend of mine and her sister once did - all she says she remembers of the experience is giggling and laughing a lot, and not much else. Dangerous pursuit, though - too much nutmeg can supposedly be fatal in some individuals.
Thanks Johnny; this was based on a news story about Martha "stealing" spices inside the prison--I can't wait til her book comes out.
Well developed parody, Royce.
This is nicely spicely....It racks up 5's
