Meal of Thieves

Stirring up the gossip pot!
Take its bite and see what you've got!

Oh, you're full?
You'll pass on a bite now you say?

Look at you!
You just won't pass on stirring it
around some more TODAY!

Stirring up the gossip pot!
Swallow its bite and see what you've got!

Oh, you're still full?
No room in your stomach for a bite you say?

Look at you!
Still plenty of room for stirring it
around some more TODAY!

Stirring up the gossip pot!
Drink its glass and see what you've got!

Oh, you're fasting now?
No reason or need for any food for you TODAY?

Look at you!
Plenty of reason and need for stirring it
around some more TODAY!

Stirring up the gossip pot!
Consume it all eating everything its got!

Oh, you're dead now?
Obviously no need to eat anything for you TODAY!

Look at you!
I guess that grave decided that you
have no more need for stirring
up anymore pots TODAY!

Look at us all!
Gossiping steals reputations and the merit from others!
Let's all not have anymore need for stirring it up again TODAY!
