I thought 4 gallons of petrol was just about right To get my barbecue fully alight On went the steak, the chops and some ribs On went the corn and a couple of squid Time to relax with a couple of beers Glance round at my guests and wait for their cheers But all I see is looks of dismay As they blink and cough in the black smokey haze The steaks are cremated the ribs are no more The chops wont even be eaten by the old dog next door As for the corn and the squid well they've gone up in smoke Well its lucky I don't cook like that I wrote this for a joke
