lyrics

Been sick in my mouth
Can't stand the taste of it
Blue cheese and broccoli
The umami mocking from deep in my gut
And the Peking duck
Best not to talk about it
I'm still spitting feathers about the bill

I gorged on butterflies and sparrow wings
But the sweetest thing
Is the swan that's still repeating
Stuffed full of fifty pound notes
Now I need a bigger boat
I'll never skip dessert

They swept up at my table
Brushed crumbs from under my feet
Broke bread and poured me drinks
The stink of desperation hung uncomfortably
As my waste broke free
Best not to talk about it
Because I'm still spitting feathers about the bill

And there's movement downstairs
Someone's cleaning up the mess
But what bothers me
Is who will clean me up
When I soil my dress
It's my Sunday best
I'll never skip dessert

Umami gets what umami wants
That's the rules
And umami tastes how umami tastes
Don't be fooled
Such unsavouriness has no place at my table
