GUEST,keberoxu Songs about gluttony (30) Songs about gluttony 23 Oct 15

Wish I could locate the song I have in mind. The story ABOUT this song can be pieced together, though.
Before Michael Flanders was "At the Drop of a Hat" famous, he wrote a text that went by the title of "Gluttony."

When I don't know, but composer Joseph Horowitz put "Gluttony" to music. If you know your Michael Flanders history, then you recognize the name Joseph Horowitz, as the composer of "Captain Noah and his Floating Zoo" for which Flanders wrote the book/lyrics.

Oddly, no one will quote the lyrics but people will mutter about them, using words like "savage." One statement emerged, that the manufacture of foie gras by force-feeding geese, is given some attention in the song.
