Nobody can comprehend;
It baffles one and all
Just how much I love Edam
And pine for Emmental.

Gouda smoked is very toothsome
The same is with Gruyère
And Mozarella and I have
An eternal love affair.

Cheddar when it's sharp and sweet
Is an absolute delight!
Parmesan, simply divine
When it is aged just right.

Some may call it an obsession
But I don't seek a cure,
For though all the world may melt away,
My love for cheese endures!
Cheese, how do I love thee?

this year for halloween
im going as a slice of cheese
so i can scare people
with puns

now how do i begin?
o-que, so

i walk down the halloumi and see
my friends colby and jack

colby's dressed as a camembear
scary enough to make you go emmental

jack's dressed as the Cheshire cat
who listens to baroquefort

we all sit down paneer the window

"so teleme," i ask, "what's gouda?"

"i'll tell you what's gouda," jack replies eagerly,
"see that girl over there, fonTina?"

how could i swiss her, i thought, with her looks and her cheddar, she could make it gruyere down there out of even the LEAST manchego of men

"go talk to her, jack, it'll be a brieze"

"no whey man!"

"yes whey"

"man i'm too anxious, i'd rather talk on the mascarphone"

"what do you mean, you're the goat!"

"we can'tal be buff-alo like you, why don't you talk to her?"

"already dating monterey"

"i didn't know you swung both wheys"

"sometimes i feel like my sexuality was madE backwards"

"alright that's enough!" jack stammered. "i'm fetup with these puns! it was fun at first but it's gotten annoying. some of this **** doesn't even make any sense! just go man, nobody wants you here."

colby and i exchanged a solemn glance
i turned to jack
"..................ricotta be kidding me!"

"LEAVE!" jack screamed, and i turned and walked away


now it's time i asiago home
feeling blue, heading back to my cottage
sad and provolone

High in the mountains of Switzerland
refrain: Yodelayheeho, yodelayheehey
I found a man I can't withstand
refr.

He is a big cheese in der Schweiz
refr.
Produces Emmental with eyes
refr.

Amidst our stroll he urges me
refr.
You soon must meet my family
refr.

The nicest kids you've ever seen
refr.
I have a bunch of seventeen
refr.

I think potentially of a score
refr.
So I would love a couple more
refr.

Thus caught out in naïveté
refr.
I answered him without delay
refr.

I'd love a bunch of any size
refr.
But hesitate on cheese with eyes
refr.

You gave me eyes, but I confess
refr.
Not every girl is a cheese princess
refr.

I hence went quietly my way
refr.
And have kept silent from that day
refr.

I do not want that this surprise
refr.
Will be known im ganzen Schweiz
refrain: Yodelayheehey, yodelayheeho!
