Tuna Noodle Casserole, The Musical

Mary promised to make tuna noodle casserole tonight if I paid respects on the blog. Mary, I felt it might be appropriate to combine your favorite musical with my favorite Wednesday-night meal.

So here it is, for posterity: "Tuna Noodle," sung to the tune of "Summer Nights" from Grease:

Tuna noodle, had me a blast
Tuna noodle, ate it so fast.
Mary serves it, Wednesdays at 8
Jesse eats it, fills up her plate

Just a spoon sends me to the moon
But uh-oh, it’s gone in two bites
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh
Give me more, give me more
Does it have extra cheese?
Give me more, give me more
Makes me weak in the knees.

“Smallville” watchin’, sure, that’s real swell
But I love this dish more than Clark -- can’t you tell?
Almost hate to serve it with beer
Tuna should be the Fish of the Year

Just one bit sends me into a fit
But uh-oh, it’s gone in two bites
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh
Give me more, give me more
What mushroom soup did you use?
Give me more, give me more
There’s no way I’ll refuse.

"Jack and Bobby"? It’s 9? What’s the deal?
Time slipped by…had my mind on my meal.
Just can’t look at the WB
With this casserole starin’ at me

Just a nip makes my heart want to skip
But uh-oh, it’s gone in two bites
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh
Give me more, give me more
Though it’s gone soon, I know
Give me more, give me more
Can I have some to-go?.

My plate’s colder, show’s at an end
Tuna noodle, adieu, my friend
China Castle just can’t compete
You’ll always be the best meal to eat.
One more taste…. it can’t go to waste…..
But, uh-oh, it’s gone in a bi-iiiiiiite.
