|
Hi Mr. Fforde,
I'm a great fan of you books. I heard this song on the radio a year or so ago and I finally found the lyrics. I immediatly thought of the Toast Marketing Board, and laughed till I cried all the way to work that morning. It's better listening to it, but the words alone are good too Just thought I would share. Rachel E. Ross (US of A) Toast by Heywood Banks All around the country and coast to coast People always say, "what do you like most?" I don't want to brag, I don't want to boast I always tell 'em, "I like toast." YEAH, TOAST!! YEAH, TOAST!! I get up in the morning 'bout six A.M. Have a little jelly, have a little jam Take a piece of bread, put it in the slot Push down the lever and the wires get hot, I get toast. YEAH, TOAST! YEAH, TOAST! Now, there's no secret to toasting perfection There's a dial on the side and you make your selection Push to the dark or the light and then If it pops too soon, press down again Make toast. YEAH, TOAST! YEAH, TOAST! When the first caveman drove in from the drags Didn't know what would go with the bacon and the eggs Must have met a genius, got it in his head Plug the toaster in the wall, buy a bag of bread Make toast. YEAH, TOAST! YEAH, TOAST! Oui Monsieur, bonjour coquette, Une croissant? Et vous auvent? Maurice Chevalier, Eiffel Tower, Oui Marie, baguette, bonsoir! FRENCH TOAST! FRENCH TOAST! In Chicago or (fill in location)..... TOAST!!!! Back to Reader's index page |
