Toast Songtext
von Streetband

Morning all
I′d like to tell you about when I was a young boy
Musta been three or four months old at the time
I didn't really know what I wanted
And if I did, I wouldn′t have been able to tell anybody, 'cause all I could do was gurgle

So I sat there in me high-chair, thinking one day
Looking at me tray and thinking, "What I'd give for a meal on there!"
So I started looking ′round to see what I could have
I was rubbing me eggy soldier in me head, trying to think
And then I looked in the corner and there′s a little bread bin with its mouth open
Just staring at me, like
And then I looked in and I saw bread

I thought, oh yeah, I'll have toast
A little piece of toast


Well, then I started gettin′ older
I hated this, I hated that
Expensive state was ludicrous and cafés couldn't cater
For the finer things in life
The upper crust was not for me, I could tell that
So I′d go back home, switch the kitchen light on
Put the grill on, slip a slice under

And have toast
A little piece of toast

'Cause there′s so much to choose from
There's brown bread, white bread
All sorts of wholemeal bread
It comes in funny packages with writing on the side
But it doesn't matter which one you have
′Cause when you cut the crusts off, have it with marmalade
Or butter, cheese, tomatoes, beans, banana
Or chocolate if you′re strange, it doesn't really matter

Oh no, it all goes with toast
Just toast

I′m gonna think about it some
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo


That's toast
Mmm, yeah
Just toast

That′s toast
Just toast

Well, I go down the supermarket with me basket in me hand
I'm walking from one counter to another tryin′ to find the bread stall
But I can't find it anywhere
And then I bump into a mother with a baby in a basket
And she says, "Oh look, you've started him off again
I come down here for a little bit of peace and quiet
To get some bread to go home to make toast"

Just toast
I like toast

Yeah, but I don′t half like toast
Okay, scrape that toast, boys

Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo

That′s toast
Mm, yeah
Just toast

I can't think about it anymore, I′ve got to go and have some, it's not good
Here, listen, I′m getting a bit browned off standing here
Me too
Shall we go and have some toast?
Good idea!
Why not?
Okay

I've got the grill on
Got any brown bread?
Yeah
Have you got wholemeal bread?
(Toast) wheatmeal bread?
(Toast) all sorts of toast
Let′s go
