The Fourth's the day for fireworks
And barbecues and beer,
But there’s another custom
That takes place but once a year:
And barbecues and beer,
But there’s another custom
That takes place but once a year:
The hot dog eating
contest!
And the champs are all prepared,
While only those insane enough
To challenge will have dared.

The five-time winner,
Joey Chestnut,
Weighing just 210,
Devoured sixty-eight last year
And wants to win again.

The female best
contestant,
Soaking wet one hundred pounds,
Ate forty-one, complete with buns,
A number that astounds.
Soaking wet one hundred pounds,

To watch them stuff
their faces
Is a most amazing sight.
It’s silly, crazy and, to me,
Pure grossness at its height.

Yet people love to
watch and cheer
To see who’ll wear the crown,
Though mostly they are hoping
Not all hot dogs will stay down.
To see who’ll wear the crown,
Though mostly they are hoping
Not all hot dogs will stay down.
The hot dog number
I’ll consume
Today will add to zero,
ButConey
Island soon will crown
The proud new hot dog hero!
Today will add to zero,
But
The proud new hot dog hero!
