📔 a good voice to beg bacon 📋Meaning Used to mock someone's voice as being strange, unpleasant, or inadequate (e.g., for singing).

I'm glad we didn't stay too long, he had a good voice to beg bacon. 🗣I love Alice, but, my goodness, the girl has a good voice to beg bacon! Please do not let her sign up for the talent show. 🗣I like to sing, but only in the shower—I know I have a good voice to beg bacon. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ @PhrasalCards @SlangWords @IdiomsLand @Vocabulix @GrammarCards @EnglishGate @StoryPage
