No Pasta Today
by Richard Perlmutter
I was in dining in old Italy
When the waiter said what’ll it be
I said I hear your pasta is great
Can you bring me a plate
We got no pasta today
He answered sorry to say
We got no vermicelli no spaghetti or ragu
No linguini we’re out of that too
There’s no rigati nowhere
And we got no angel hair
No macaroni, ravioli, pici or penne
There’s no pasta today
