O Lord Please Don't Burn Us
From the film "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life"
Lyrics by Graham Chapman & John Cleese
Music by John Du Perez
--------------------------------------------------
O Lord, please don't burn us,
Don't grill or toast your flock,
Don't put us on the barbeque,
Or simmer us in stock,
Don't braise or bake or boil us,
Or stir-fry us in a wok.
O please don't lightly poach us,
Or baste us with hot fat,
Don't fricassee or roast us,
Or boil us in a vat,
And please don't stick thy servants, Lord,
In a Rotissomat.
