Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Far East Kitchen
Far East Kitchen
Far East Kitchen
cho: Oh for food sublime I would dine at Far East Kitchen
And See the Hand of Welcome Reaching from the Maitre'D
Take the new Red Line past the coop and beat the traffic
And feast at Far East Kitchen, thats for me
Westward from the Davis Square tis there its said to lie
This tea house of the orient to which so many fly
Seeking Peking duckling, leaving well gnawed broken bones
And an oft remembered cairn of leechee stones
(repeat Chorus)
Through the night throughout the meal we feasted on the best
Kimcee, moo goo gai pan, mapo tofu and the rest
Steaming plates arrive before us, empty plates removed again
This heartiest of eaters satiated in the end
(Repeat Chorus)
tune: Northwest Passage
