Fly

lyrics

I was minding my own business on a linen tablecloth
When I stumbled on a bowl filled with a savory broth
I could not resist temptation, I had no time to think
Flew right into the bowl and I took a mighty drink

I'm a fly stuck in a bowl of soup
At a fancy restaurant, I’m dreading the scoop
Wish I could escape, but I'm stuck in here
In this bowl of soup, my doom is near

I see the waiters rushing 'round, carrying trays of food
But none of them notice me, swimming so crude
The other flies buzzing 'round, enjoying the feast
But I'm a prisoner of the bowl, there’ll be no release

I'm a fly stuck in a bowl of soup
At a fancy restaurant, I’m dreading the scoop
Wish I could escape, but I'm stuck in here
In this bowl of soup, my doom is near

I see the diners all around, enjoying their meal
But little do they know, I'm part of the deal

I see the spoon coming, it's getting closer
I try to fly away, but I'm a loser
Feel the heat on my wings, it's getting hotter
Won't get to say goodbye to my wife and my daughter

I'm a fly stuck in a bowl of soup
At a fancy restaurant, I’m dreading the scoop
Wish I could escape, but I'm stuck in here
In this bowl of soup, my doom is near
