Soup Song |
| There’s a mushroom on my eyelid |
| There’s a carrot down my back |
| I can see in the distance |
| A vast quantity of beans |
| To you I’m just a flavour |
| To make your stew taste nice |
| Oh my god, here come the onions |
| And — I don’t believe it! |
| — at least a pound of rice |
| There was a time when bacon sandwiches |
| Were everyone’s favourite snack |
| I’m delicious when I’m crunchy |
| Even when I’m almost black |
| So why you make a soup with me |
| I just can’t understand |
| It seems so bloody tasteless |
| Not to mention underhand |
| Now there’s no hope of getting out of here |
| I can feel I’m going soft |
| Dirty waters soak my fibres |
| The whole saucepan’s getting hot |
| So I may as well resign myself |
| Make friends with a few peas |
| But I just, I can’t help hoping |
| That a tummy ache will bring you to your knees |
| Bring you to your knees |
| Bring you to your knees |
| Bring you to your knees |
| (repeat to fade) |
