feeding time
by chris hardy

hours after lunch and you've had no drama since
your heart begins its rumbling, no need to convince

the chaos has all dried up, you're losing all your crop
and you wish that all this peace and quiet would just stop

chorus:
then it's feeding time
it's feeding time again
then it's feeding time
lord, bless this meal amen

to prepare a meal like this
it takes a very experienced cook
it's how you phrase the question
and how you bait the hook

so when the fists fly and the words are thrown
your aching hunger is no longer postponed

between the threats and lies that you exert
you got to save you some room for dessert
