You’re hungry? I got what you really need.
Just stick with me, my son – I’ll see you right.
Why, you look undernourished, poor wee mite!
Ebisu’s got you covered – guaranteed!
I’ll sort you out a mammoth, cracking feed:
we’ll feast and fart into the blessed night!
And when this jolly blowout’s at its height,
you’ll say a prayer, and give me thanks – agreed?
And fish! Oh boy! just think about the fish!
The carp, the codfish, shark (tho just the fin –
I’ll fix a soup if that’s the way you roll).
I’m here to grant your every hungered wish,
and then I’ll leave you, with contented grin,
a bursting belly, and one sated soul.
AWB
