lyrics
My best friends are raconteurs of the culinary kind.
They're confection connoisseurs,
baking parables into pumpkin pies.
They're ghost chili ghost writers all through the night.
They tear down the scarecrows and dine with the birds,
trading quill pens for biscuit tins and bread crumbs for words.
There are trotters and talons and twigs at the table,
but don't dare heat the oven up past the point of no return.
Don't burn that bread, so help me god.
Don't burn that bread, old friend.
She taught me that applesauce belongs in cornbread.
He spiced up my sentences with coriander.
They've got the patience of a saint in the scullery.
Welcome are those who heed the recipe.
Just scale down the flour by half.
Don't be scared to add the vinegar in last.
The crucial provision is the cast iron skillet,
you can't deviate from the cookbook on that.

but don't dare heat the oven up past the point of no return.
Don't burn that bread, so help me god.
Don't burn that bread, old friend.
