to hear the songs, but, OK, a few lyrics might do.

ZZ-Top's "TV Dinners"

"20 year old turkey in a 30 year old tin"

;D

Cook With Honey... sung by Judy Collins
" 'Cause I always cook with honey,
to sweeten up the night;
....tell me how's your appetite,
for some sweet love? "

But don't ever google on *honey* (I couldn't remember who the performer was).
Got about a million hits, lots of songs

I can't remember who did the song or the name of it and I don't think I'll
Google on 'honey' 🙂

"Honey, oh sugar sugar,
you are my candy girl!
And you've got me wantin' you."

That's "Sugar Sugar" by "The Archies". Here's the one that popped
into my head, from "The Battle of New Orleans" by Jimmy Horton:

"We took a little bacon and we took a little beans,
and we fought the bloody British in the town of New Orleans"

Jambalaya
by Hank Williams
from Stars and Stripes Forever

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have good fun on the bayou
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodeaux, Fountaineaux, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a fillet gumbo

ZZ-Top's "TV Dinners"

"20 year old turkey in a 30 year old tin"

"Do you remember when we would sit in the government yard in
Trench Town
And <indecipherable> would make a fire light
We would cook wholemeal porridge
<indecipherable> bits I'll give to you ..."

"Blender Blues", by Bonnie Raitt
...
If you bring the right ingredients
I?ll make any sauce you choose
I?ll hollandaise or mayonnaise
Any recipe you use
I can whip some waffle batter
I can blend some dough for buns
And if we get done blending,
We might even get some cooking done
...

"Church", by Lyle Lovett
...
To the Lord let praised be
It's time for dinner now let's go eat
We've got some beans and some good cornbread
And I've listened to what the preacher said
Now it's to the Lord let praised be
It's time for dinner now let's go eat

And the preacher he stopped preaching
And a hush the church did fill
And then a great white dove from up above
Landed on the window sill

And the dove flew down beside him
And a fork appeared right in his hand
And with everybody watching
The preacher ate that bird right there and then
...

LOL JS Bach's 'Coffee Cantata' , libretto by Henrici.

Manhattan Transfer's recording of Java Jive (By Ben Oakland and Milton Drake).
Also has hamburgers, raw onion, chili beans, cabbage and green beans. And tea.
Edrena

I love coffee, I love tea,
I love the Java Jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me,
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup!

I love java sweet and hot,
Whoops, Mister Moto, I'm a coffee pot
Shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot,
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup!

Oh slip me a slug from the wonderful mug
and I'll cut a rug 'til I'm snug in a jug
A slice of onion and a raw one,
Draw one!
Waiter, waiter, percolator!
....
Boston beans (soy beans)
I said the little itty-bitty green bean
(cabbage n' greens)
You know that I'm not keen about a bean,
unless it is a chili chili bean! (Talk it, boy!)

etc.

Man I felt bad.
Worst hangover that I ever had.
It took six hamburgers and scotch all night,

just to put me right....."

Or Procol Harum's "A Rum Tale"

Since we're getting into drink songs as well, by many groups and
individuals....

John Barleycorn (beer)

A Rum and a Coca Cola

Seeing one of "Weird Al's" brings to mind *Monty Python's* version of *SPAM*
