Ketchup Packet Lyrics

You didn't ask for me

And I didn't ask for you

But when you met me

I was blushing red, you were feeling blue

Why don't you want me?

It's making me so sad

Why won't you squeeze me?

I want you to use me up so bad

'Cause I'm just a ketchup packet

That you stashed inside your drawer

Well I used to be so fresh and sweet

But now I'm old and sore

I didn't know I'd be forgotten

Until nothing else remained

I'll find a way to make you love me

Upon your heart I'll leave my stain

I'm in the darkness

But I long to see the light

It makes me happy

Whenever you're in sight

But there's another

I can't take it anymore

It tears me open

Spilling out across the floor

'Cause I'm just a ketchup packet

That you stashed inside your drawer

But you always choose the bottle

That you bought fresh from the store

I didn't know you'd overlook me

For some new attractive thing

I'll find a way to make you love me

Spice it up and add some zing

I'm getting flustered

By the jars that catch your gaze

You choose the mustard

Or a spicy mayonnaise

Drop the relish and the ranch

The barbeque is all used up

I'm tired of this dance

It's time for good old ketchup

I'm still here waiting

With the soy sauce, plastic spoons

And takeout menus

That you never seem to use

But I'll keep waiting

'Til by best by date has passed

For the moment

When you'll reach for me at last

'Cause I'm just a ketchup packet

That you stashed inside your drawer

Well I used to be so fresh and sweet

But now I'm old and sore

I didn't know I'd be forgotten

Until nothing else remained

I'll find a way to make you love me

Upon your heart I'll leave my stain

I'll leave my stain...
