“Light Up the Pie”
Made-For-T.V. Movie
“Grandma’s going to make you a pie.” Well, it’s 'Light,
and Get Away!'
“No, that’s okay, grandma.” the kids want to say
but there would be no stopping her from trying
When grandma tries to cook, people are lucky not dying
This movie burns white-hot,
for a good cook, grandma is not
All her grandkids try to discourage her,
but the kindly lady insists on trying to stir
up something. She can’t even boil water
When she cooks, it’s a culinary slaughter
From her raw burgers, to her char-broiled treats,
this crazy woman should just take a seat,
and let someone else do the cooking
Her food will sneak up and hurt you, if you’re not looking
We’re now hard at work on the sequel,
“Grandma Serves Time” and all things being equal,
it, like this movie, should be absolutely awesome
You’ll never view something served by your grandma; lum-
ps of inedible s**t, quite the same way, ever again
They might get served something rotten, or, is it a cin-
der that used to be some food
Then, they’re screwed. Not wanting to be rude,
they’ll force themselves to choke it down
Yes, the kid’s all ralph, when grandma’s around
So they choke it down, then, looking like a bug-eyed freak,
they’ll run for the bathroom to blow chunks. They’ll reek
like hell when you give their grandma a hug goodbye
“Thanks, grandma, for the awesome-tasting, flaming
pie!”
