Spaghetti Ipanema
(Music : Antônio Carlos Jobim, Lyrics: A hungry Australian)
Long and thin it tastes so lovely
Spaghetti sets the world a-talkin’
It’s not just pasta
It’s more than pasta – it’s Aah!
When we eat we choose Italian
The pizza’s fine – spaghetti greater
The kind of pasta
To get you started – it’s Aah!
Oh rigatoni’s delightful
I love tortellini so madly
Yes I need penne so badly
But when bolognaise sauce hits the dish
Spaghetti becomes my first wish
Long and thin it tastes so lovely
Spaghetti sets the world a-talkin’
The kind of pasta
I love, but there’s not enough, not enough
Oh – how I’d love a stir fry now
Oh – wouldn’t mind chicken chow mein
Yes curried prawns would go down well
But my taste buds are not new to this
Spaghetti they just wouldn’t miss
Long and thin it tastes so lovely
Spaghetti sets the world a-talkin’
The kind of pasta
I love, but there’s not enough, not enough, etc
