Pancakes
13 Sep 2008, Music for the Blind, track 19
You are about to eat some pancakes, a stack of three with butter, syrup and bacon in between each pancake. THE BEST THING YOU HAVE EATEN IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!
-Pancakes
i stacked them up i stacked them oh so high
you'd swear these pancakes reached the sky
i filled them up with everything i could
and sitting on the plate they look divine
it helps to know that they are mine
the butter's melting into the bacon and it is good
--
just looking at it makes me want to cry
but not a tear escapes my eye
i have a job to do and i will not concede
so i aproach the pancakes with intent
knowing that i can not relent
there's one hungry mouth to feed
--
i know it can't be good for me
but i can not stop now
there is no way to justify
ignoring pancakes a mile high
----
CHORUS
these pancakes are delicious
and i become aware
that i will never have another quite as good as this
this knowledge is depressing
and i am now obsessing
memory of this will haunt me to my dying day
----
but i must carry on
this can't be all i'm worth
there must be something else for me to sink my life into
perhaps i could just die
perhaps i don't see why
perhaps there isn't anything that's left for me to do
-but there's no way that i am going to take this lying down
i won't let deliciousness get to me
no i won't let deliciousness get to me
----
CHORUS
