Sing For Your Supper - Cathy Davey

with an element, oh no

and it leaking in my gut

could you have an idiot

with it’s banner in my brain

and i’ll never talk sense again

but i’ll sing with all i’ve got

from the bottom of my leaky gut

will you never come back for more

is the whole thing too familiar

with the line of your back so broad

but its me who’s knocking down your door

sing for your supper

is all that i can do

one way or the other

i’ll be making eyes at you

there’s a woman in my brain

and she dabbled in my chemistry

i woke her up when i called your name

but ill never wake her up again

with an element, oh no

will you never come back for more

is the whole thing too familiar

with the line of your back so broad

but its me who’s knocking down your door

sing for your supper

is all that i can do

one way or the other

i’ll be making eyes at you

filling up an empty room

should have never have one companion

look at me loving you

is there ever any other reason

sing for your supper

is all that i can do

one way or the other

ill be making eyes at you

sing for your supper…
