Once inspiration hit, how could I resist?<br><br><b>Knights In White Tofu</b><br><br>Knights in white tofu<br>A rare, delicious blend.<br>Marinate the stew,<br>Let tasting commend.<br><br>Though fully armored<br>In medieval attire,<br>They'll get devoured<br>With the salad and fire.<br><br>And I love you,<br>Yes I love you,<br>Oh! I love tofu!<br><br>They're rich in proteins,<br>The perfect food.<br>I crave those soya beans,<br>I'm gettin' in the mood.<br><br>Some people they try<br>To attain good flavour;<br>If they could learn to fry<br>The taste they'd savor.<br><br>And I love you,<br>Yes I love you,<br>Oh! I love tofu!<br><br>Watch the knights simmer<br>In succulent slices.<br>On the fire they shimmer,<br>Fed with the spices.<br><br>Some people they refuse,<br>They cite it's awful.<br>We value their views<br>So we give them waffles.<br><br>And I love you,<br>Yes I love you,<br>Oh! I love tofu!

Great tribute to the Moody Blues, man. Now I don't think I'll get that song out of my head. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:blue'>Very stirring indeed. Hmm, can someone do something with the poem that is said at the end? Unfortunately I can't remember all the words to it.</span> </span>

I didn't know about that part, it seems the closing opposite of "The Day Begins" at the start of "Days of Future Passed". I wasn't aware of this, but I don't have a desire to tofu-ify it now, perhaps some other time I could do something.
