You fry me in a pan   You cook me in a can   You stretch me with your hands      You love to watch me bake   You serve me up with cake   And that's your big mistake      Your guest comes in dressed smart   You offer a la carte   You didn't have the heart      And I want a TV embrace   And I, I'm getting off your boiling plate   They swore you'd steal my steam to feed your dream   And then be gone   I wish I could say that everyone was wrong      You left me burned and seared   You left me ripped and teared   And older than my years      I should have know at first   That you would leave me hurt   You had to try dessert      No way to let off steam   Don't bother milk or cream   No way to let off steam      And I want a TV embrace   And I, I'm getting off this boiling plate   They swore you'd steal my steam to feed your dream   And then be gone   I wish I could say that everyone was wrong      It must feel good to stand above me   While I make you so proud of me   It must feel good that I'm now gone   I wish I could say that everyone was wrong   I wish everyone was wrong   I wish everyone was wrong   I wish everyone was wrong   I wish everyone was wrong   I wish everyone was wrong
