I knew there was one lurking in my cranium that wanted to be found. I had to throw that other trash out first to uncover it.


BREAKFAST BLUES
As recorded by Trout Fishing in America on "Who Are These People?" (1994)

You give me hard eggs in the mornin'; cheese omelet you go.
Yeah, you give me hard eggs in the mornin'; cheese omelet you go.
You just hot butter grit your teeth and bear it, girl; I donut love you no more.
(And don't get that glazed look on your face).

Ham bacon you to leave me; I never sausage misery.
Ham bacon you to leave me, darlin'; I never sausage misery.
Well, you treated me so ungrapefruitly, you gave me raisin to be free.
(Orange juice ashamed of yourself now?)

Well, what do you eggs-benedict me to do now? I got muffin else to say.
Yeah, what do you eggs benedict me to do girl? (You butter come up with somethin'.) I got muffin else to say.
Yeah, you left such a waffle toast in my mouth, you biscuit out of town today.
(You know I ain't gonna keep those home fries burning for ya.)

[Repeat the first verse ending with:]
"Ain't gonna quiche you anymore"


I love the blues, I love food, and I love terrible puns. Here it is!!! All wrapped up in one song. What a blessing!
