Cold Cereal Blues

Posted by Bad Finger (Eric) on February 27, 2012 at 3:00pm

Kids get a week off from School in February and Dad gets all out of sync with the schedules.  Inspired the following spontaneously sung this morning.  Could have used and accompanist.
 

Hard wakin' up this morning and didn't get to choose

Rolled out of bed and didn't get to choose

Dad was pourin' the milk and them cold cereal blues 
 

I got them blues

Them cold cereal blues

Soggy flakes and milk

Them cold cereal blues
 

I was thinkin' pancakes and a fried egg or two

Pure maple syrup and a fried egg or two

But Dad was pourin the milk and them cold cereal blues
 

I got them blues

Them cold cereal blues

Soggy flakes and milk

Them cold cereal blues
 

Soggy flakes and milk, glass of orange juice

Lookin' like dog's breakfast and a glass of orange juice

P

Dad's pourin' the milk and the cold cereal blues
 

I got them blues

Them cold cereal blues

Soggy flakes and milk

Them cold cereal blues
 

I got them blues

Them low-down

dirty stinking  

Monday morning back to school

shoulda had pancakes and eggs

Why does it have to be soggy

I don't want to go back to class

lunch isn't going to be any better

Joey says potty words to me

Cold

Disgusting

Soggy

Cereal blues!

    Bad,

     

    Love it!  Put it to a tune man, record it, get your daughters to help you with the vid. It'd be priceless!

    Oh crap. Now I'm hungry again...

    It was spontaneous.  And the syrup goes on the pancakes, but I've seen it put on eggs with pancakes.  You know like a short stack with a couple fried eggs on top?

    Either way, better than cold cereal.

       "Pure maple syrup and a fried egg or two"

       Interesting taste combo...
