I don’t like eating breakfast
On the days that I don’t work.
I do like breakfast foods, it’s just
The meal I must shirk.
I love a puffy pastry
Or some hearty eggs and ham,
Perhaps a stack of pancakes,
Or a slice of toast with jam.
I have to eat for work
So I will make a lighter meal,
But first thing in the morning
I find food has no appeal.
So on the days that I don’t work
There’s zilch I want to munch.
I think I’d rather sleep till noon
And start the day with lunch.
