Yes you can!


All my meals I cook with orange
But for one that I abhor:
In jambalaya orange doesn't go with rice.


It'll make your tongue turn beige
And you will suffer mild aphasia
Next you'll cough and sneeze and hiccup once or twice.


I'll not eat it bribed with silver
Yet exist there always will
Voracious lovers of this dish who'll pay top price.


I'll resist 'til I turn purple.
Let them eat it while I slurp
A little orange juice and vodka over ice!
