Bon Apetite - Melanie, Michael Brecker, Randy Brecker

I always ask for a thicker slice

I like my drinks with lots of spice

And appetites a human vice I’m guilty of

I never toss my salad lightly

Never travel under ninety

Always do a little more than I’ve got time for

But sometimes, when I’ve had enough

I count to ten and fill my cup up again

And then I ask for more, I’m not ashamed

At least I ask in my own name

And I wouldn’t dream of taking more than I could love

And when I meet my death I’m sure

I’m gonna ask for just a little more of life’s time

But, if I don’t get it, I don’t mind

And still I hope to age with grace

When I’ve overdone and never learn to pace

Never learn to moderate or do it like the angels

And when I meet my death I’m sure

Gonna ask for just a little more of life’s time

But, if I don’t get it, I don’t mind

It’s what I wanted all the time

If I don’t get it, I don’t mind

Always ask for a thicker slice

I like my drinks with lots of spice

And appetites a human vice I’m guilty of

I never toss my salad lightly

Never travel under ninety

Always do a little more tan I’ve got time for

And, when I meet my death I’m sure

Gonna ask for just a little more of life’s time

But, if I don’t get it, I don’t mind

Always ask for a thicker slice

I like my drinks with lots of spice…
