Don't Cry For Me SBM Members


(Sung to the tune of Don't Cry For Me Argentina)

I'm not greasy
You'll think it strange
I am a mud fish with a strange smell
That may be too strong 
for the discerning amongst you
You won't believe me
All you see is a meaty fish
you once knew
That could be dressed up to the nines
With garlic, shallots and rice wine!

I had to let it to happen
You'll think it strange
When all a fish wants is to stay at sea
Avoiding predators and
mermaids with RPGs
So I chose suicide
Biting at every bait I see
But nothing impressed me at all
Except for Angeline's bait lor

Chorus:
Don't cry for me SBM members!
The truth is I don't know half of you
You cut short my wild days
My river existence
So keep your promise
Make me delicious!

As for fortune, as for fame
It depends on which joint I go
Is the chef famous and 
innovative like René Redzepi
Some are pretenders
They are not Michelin-starred
as they all claimed to be
I better not waste my time
I love you and hope you'll soon gut me!

Don't cry for me SBM members!

Chorus:
Don't cry for me SBM members!
The truth is I don't know half of you
You cut short my wild days
My river existence
So keep your promise
Make me delicious!

Have I said too much
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do 
Is look at the recipe books
And not waste my death, can you?

The End
