Parmesan Cheese

When I get pasta at a restaurant
And the waiter comes around
With the parmesan cheese
And he says, Parmesan?
And I say, Please
He gives me a spoonful
And says, Would you like more?
And I say, Sure
As if it's no big deal
As if it's not my reason for
Choosing an Italian restaurant in the first place
He looks at me and says, Is that good?
Yeah, that's good, thanks

I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
I'm embarrassed

Why are they so stingy?
Is there a shortage of parmesan?
Is it really that expensive?
I just want more cheese
Is that so wrong?
Just leave it at the table
Let me serve myself for God's sake
I'm a grown up
I have rights
And I will not be shamed for my cheese intake

I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed

I will not remain silent
I will not give in
I will die before I let Big Parma win

I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
I'm embarrassed
I'm embarrassed

So the next time you get pasta
And the waiter comes around with the parmesan cheese
And he says, Parmesan?
And you say, Please
Don't let him leave until your plate overflows
And if he says, Say when
Then you say, No!
I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
I always want more parmesan but I'm embarrassed
Everybody!
We always want more parmesan but we're embarrassed
Don't be embarrassed
We always want more parmesan but we're embarrassed
Don't be embarrassed
