Waste lyrics

Every meal eaten with relish

Given forth from the earth

Its bounty always present

Should never be disposed of

To laden her with huffish scorn

There are those who do without

Growling gut, constant companion

Hunger, like misery always near

Three squares a day, but a dream

In an unrelenting hell of starvation

To be there, is to care, to share

Counting ribs in assessment

To do withoutas do their mouths

Their minds, their hearts scorched

To savour what waste there is

A cardinal transgression, waste

To disregard human needs

The value of life granted

Never to be tossed to the heap

Regret is a dish unfulfilling

To be fussy is to be famished

Count blessings discernedly

As if to count grains of rice

That rationed they might be

One grain may tip the scale of life
