You Are What You Eat

FBI thinks they will be able
To watch what you put on the table
Once they know what you had
They’ll know if you’re bad
Or if you are mentally stable

Did you see what he had on his plate?
Did you catch what he ordered and ate?
It was not US food
I’m not sure of this dude
Or what he’s been eating to date

Was it some Hispanic Fare?
Or from Asia somewhere
Or even perhaps Middle East
Did it smell really funny?
Did he use foreign money?
Was this to be his last feast?

Look how he glances
Let’s not take any chances
Cause we don’t know who, when or how
Though the thought just might chafe you
We all must be safe too
Let’s take him out right here and now!

FBI officials combed through sales records of Middle Eastern food at San Francisco-area restaurants in 2005 and 2006, hoping that the data, along with other information, would lead them to Iranian secret agents operating in the United States. Apparently, higher-ups put a stop to the effort before it got very far.
