Thanks for bringing attention..

Thanks for bringing attention to this sad occasion 

We shouldn't be mourning, should have a celebration 

We should celebrate his life, the rises and the falls

Many are overcome with grief, even the meat bawls 

We must realize, when you're talking chefs, he's the master

Chef Boyardee, dead 40 years, that's all in the pasta

He worked to attain his dream, never gave up on his plan

To sell, God rest his soul, spaghetti & meatballs in a can
