yes, we'll have BBQ

yes, we'll have BBQ at my birthday party
no stuffy smoked salmon with capers, or bruschetta
with goat cheese, no canapes or gluten free cake.
we'll eat BBQ meat, corn on the cob and cole slaw
we'll drink lots of beer and toast to the old lady
oh yeah, that's me.
yes, BBQ will rock, the old will feel youthful
the young will happily devour unapologetic meat.
and now, so late at night, I will go to the freezer
and unapologetically get myself a big bowl of ice
cream to help me sleep, with Root dribbled on top.
alcohol and cream, yes, I'll have that tonight.
