They’ll talk about it after dinner   over after dinner drinks   then tie it to the car's antenna   and pray the sinking feeling shrinks   if they make it to see monkey time   it's difficult without a spine   like the yellow bellied jelly fish   they'll try to sneak back into line   erase it from all recall   clear it like the dinner plates   it was autumn was it ever fall   could you tell me what this illustrates   you know me – I’m sugar free   they’ll raise it or they'll post it   while they're lowering the boom   to paraphrase you’re getting closer   meet me in the dining room   I’ll try going easy on you   and try not to leave a scar   oh all right I’m sorry   but not as sorry as you are   erase it from all recall…   It’s the candy-coated soft shoe   in the land of sponge cake men   that whine and dine on ginger bread   then they’re passed out in the den   erase it from all recall…
