Their bitterness, like tears of pain,

And that's how you make eggplant parmigiana.
Sometimes the hellsite is good and this is one of those times.

But uh-oh, you say you're a vegan, do ya?
Well, that's ok, cause there more for me
And garlic, it will set you free
And the Navy boys, they still are singing hooyah
Singing hooyah...
Singing hooyah...
