Such Large Portions by Beauty Pill Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2004

Pet the bomb-sniffing dog
It's friendly, though it's on the job
It turns and says "It's too damned-late-o'-clock"

And I want what I want
But I can't really say what I want

Powdered light from flat screen
Floods the room with "live beyond your means"
There is a price for free speech

You want what you want
And you can't really say what you want

The food is poison here, you can't eat it
But in such large portions!
The food is poison here, you can't eat it
And it keeps you going!
And if that's a joke, it's a joke, but not a funny joke
You can have what you want, if you know what you want
No one knows what they want
Pet the bomb-sniffing dog
It's friendly, though it's on the job
The cause is worthy and it's lost

And I want what I want
But I can't really say what I want

Pain deferred is pain amplified
And fear rides shotgun, but always wants to switch sides
"Come on, darlin'. You can sleep while I drive..."

The food is poison here, you can't eat it
But in such large portions!
The food is poison here, you can't eat it
And it keeps you going!
And if that's a joke, it's a joke, but not a funny joke
You can have what you want, if you know what you want
No one knows what they want
