Breakfast Lyrics

Shaking hands on a bachelor couch

I heard the knock

I won't come out

Black guitar and a three-chord tune

To keep me cozy in this cocoon

Now I'll be sleeping with one more drink

I'll rise with the sun on the Navesink

No hangover or heart to break

I'll treat myself to a hero's take

Of breakfast

Sweet, healing breakfast

And I'll be over easy

All the scrambled signs you gave me

Over breakfast

We're squared away now

Nothing left to say

Though I forgive with all the love I save

Frosted hair that never ends

Restraining order on her boyfriend

Cracking gum, five-color nails

Now I know this meal won't fail

Will she tally the check too soon?

Will the sausage make me swoon?

Will this omelet a nightmare chase?

My lips I lick, my heart I brace

For breakfast

Sweet, healing breakfast

And I'll be over easy

Those hard-boiled words you said

Over breakfast

We're squared away now

Nothing left to say

Good luck, goodbye to those dark days ahead

Now I will eat them on a train

And I will eat them on a plane

But one thing I won't entertain

Is a flapjack dry as a desert plain

So hold the pancakes, keep them warm

Syrup on the side in classic form

Hot coffee keeping me awake

To write about my last mistake

At breakfast

Sweet, healing breakfast

And I'll be over easy

All the scrambled signs you gave me

Over breakfast

We're squared away now

Nothing left to say

Though I forgive with all the love I save

Though I forgive with all the love I save
