Shake Some Salt

I’ve run out of nosh

I got nothing in the ‘fridge

That’s a simple fact, mm-mm

I can’t feed my cat, mm-mm

 

To the market I will go

And buy myself some food

And then I’ll start to cook, mm-mm

Then I’ll start to cook, mm-mm

 

‘Cause I’ll keep cooking

Can’t stop, won’t stop cooking

It’s like I got some cumin in my blood

Making everything spicey

 

‘Cause the cook is gonna cook, cook, cook, cook

And the baker’s gonna bake, bake, bake, bake

And I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake

Shake some salt, shake some salt

 

I don’t follow recipes

Use my palm for tsps

It always works out fine, mm-mm

It always tastes divine, mm-mm

 

I’m crushing garlic cloves

I make the dish up as I go

Experimenting is my jam, mm-mm

I’ll add it to the ham, mm-mm

 

‘Cause I’ll keep cooking

Can’t stop, won’t stop cooking

It’s like I got some cumin in my blood

Making everything spicey

 

‘Cause the cook is gonna cook, cook, cook, cook

And the baker’s gonna bake, bake, bake, bake

And I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake

Shake some salt, shake some salt

 

Shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt

 

Hey, hey, hey

Just think, while you’ve been eating fast food and getting sick

And greasy like the Donald Trumps of the world

You could have been eating this great quiche

 

My produce guy brought a new vegetable

That’s like oh my god perfect for a cheesy bake

And to the fella over there with the hella good pear

Won’t you add it to the cake? And then we’ll shake, shake, shake

Yeah, oh oh

 

‘Cause the cook is gonna cook, cook, cook, cook

And the baker’s gonna bake, bake, bake, bake

And I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake

Shake some salt, shake some salt

 

Shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt

I, I, I shake some salt, shake some salt 

It's time to stop the stupid

 To the tune of The Muppet Show opening theme:

It’s time to stop the stupid

It’s time to park the car

It’s time to see some hard facts for exactly what they are

 

It’s time to learn some new tricks

And not be such a dink

It’s time to recognize that we’re all on the brink

 

Why did we do this to us?

We thought we were so great.

It’s like a kind of torture

Seeing idiots procreate.

 

I'd like to introduce an idea

And one that’s tried and true,

It may make some folks crazy,

But what’s a girl to do?

 

So let us not be stupid

Why don’t we not be stupid?

It’s time to stop the stupid

On the facts in front of us, no need to discuss, take a fucking bus, stop making a fuss,

This is what we call Global Climate Change!

If you never...

 

If you never look up

You'll miss sights quite fantastic

Like bird loop-di-loops

And squirrel gymnatics!

 

But if you never look down,

I feel sorry for you,

'Cause you'll miss that cool mushroom

That's growing in poo!

 

If you never listen

Oh the sounds you won't hear

Like the wind in the trees

And the trill of killdeer.

 

If you're not breathing deep

You won't smell those good smells

Like the first blooms in springtime

And the fall chanterelles.

 

If you never look close

You won't get very far

And you may as well live life

Inside of a jar.

 

So sometimes the trick

Is to shut eyes and mouth

Cup your ears and just listen

To north, east, west and south.

 

If you think you know all,

Then you don't know a thing

And you'll miss all the nifties

The universe brings!

Rather be Square
