I see my food is coming
Out the kitchen door
The vegetables are steaming
I can't wait anymore
The waiter's taking too long
I hope he gets here soon
Or he might find an ex-Beatle
Passed out in the dining room

He finally finds our table
And sets our four meals down
Then he offers something
That makes me have a frown
I know it wasn't mean
And I don't want to be rude
But I had to stop him before he added to my food

Don't pass the salt, no sodium for me please
Cause my doctor said less is Best for me
Instead of taking spice
I want to extend my life
Don't pass the salt, it's not your fault

I'm sorry but my lifestyle changed
It happens when you get old
But it was all brought about
When I was young and used to Rock and Roll
Taking all the fun back then
Has finally took its toll
The mind is maybe still young at heart
But the body says No,No,No

Don't pass the salt, no sodium for me please
Cause my doctor said less is Best for me
Instead of taking spice
I want to extend my life
Don't pass the salt, it's not your fault
