cake for breakfast Lyrics

I ate the leftover cake from your birthday for breakfast

I had to I was sad

I know it wasn't the right choice but it also wasn't the wrong one

Also it's Monday

Again

They never seem to stop arriving

And that's a good thing or so I am trying to believe

Halfway through the morning, I found frosting on the outside of my hand

The same place where I would find smudges of green Crayola marker

As I'd scribble the grass in my 2nd grade class

Back when I looked forward to Mondays

And back when I could have cake for breakfast

Well a muffin

But we all know muffins are just morning cake

Before school I'd have an Otis Spunkmeyer Chocolate Chocolate Muffin

For breakfast because I didn't like eggs or oatmeal

Something about texture

And I really just wanted cake for breakfast

I mean a muffin

And today just like when I was 7

I needed to begin my day with something sweet

So I could move my feet

Because sometimes you just need to have

Cake for breakfast
