Mvt. I - Morning Lasagna by Ember Knight Lyrics
[Intro]
Forty percent vegetable or twenty percent casserole
I must eat up all my dinner to become well (x4.5)
(I wanna leave I wanna leave I wanna leave I wanna leave
Take me home // A hot beverage won't count in your percentage to salvation) (x2.5)
[Verse 1]
Once Upon A Time
You crawled under your bed in golden furs to hide
We read that you had died in the papers
And when nobody laughed you cried
[Chorus]
When I get out of here
(and she waits for me)
You motherfuckers will laugh long and loud
(no matter how long)
I'm gonna show you how
[Verse 2]
Red was the sun on Christmas morning
When you tied your waist
Tighter and tighter until your stomach
Swelled up in your face you told me
[Chorus]
When I get out of here
(and she waits for me)
We'll be as thick as thieves
(no matter how long)
Mhmm like we were meant to be
[Bridge]
But did you forget me baby where did you go
You seem so sure of yourself but don't you know
You're gonna miss me when I'm
You're gonna wish that I was
I'm just not feeling myself this morning
[Spoken]
Oh mom, don't worry about me, I'll be fine I've got so much fucking potential
[instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
You came to me in blue
God himself had cleaned your eyes
I saw that it was
True you died in 1995
[Chorus]
But when I get out of here
I know where I want to be
Wherever I am where you're
Right there next to me
[Spoken]
Not long before, Cheryl went down to the hospital store
The doctor said: "why are you here?
Is it mould in the teeth? Do you bleed from the ear?"
Cheryl said "No, not that or the other
I just can't remember my favorite color -
Red is quite nice, and I do love blue, and yellow is yellow...
But which is true?"
"Tut tut," said the doctor, "its worse than I thought
You're gonna have to stay right here in this spot
We'll bring you lasagna three times a day
But until you remember your favorite color
This is where you're gonna stay."
