Stephen Bard - The Real Sugar
Late this morning
Front desk is calling
Ten more minutes
I’m gonna miss the free buffet
This thing is stronger
Than the morning hunger
If I keep this up
I have to pay the extra day
You know that nightie
That naughty nightie
The one you wore when we spent
All night making up
You left the light on
And that was all
Yeah
Now every morning since
It’s hard just waking up
Don’t want no bacon, no sausage
No ham or scrambled eggs
Baby all I really want to eat right now
Is that sweet between your…
Sugar
You gotta gimme gimme some of that sugar
Won't cha gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
Father Aloysius
He’s in the garden
Puts down his hoe, takes off his glove
And shakes my hand
The free condolence card was
Twenty dollars
He lights a candle and says
“We’re all just grains of sand”
I kiss my mother and my
Great Aunt Cecilia
What’s that she’s wearing?
Oh my God
It’s your perfume
All through the service
Sitting next to her, I feel you
Takes all I’ve got girl
Just to stay in that church room
I know that life is short and everybody dies
And that’s why I need to get myself back to that
Sweet between your…
Sugar
You gotta gimme gimme some of that sugar
Won't cha gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
Hum da
Cecilia’s dining room is
Full of good food
And all these people I haven’t seen in quite some time
Great Uncle Ray was always
In a good mood
He liked his Celia and his Perrier with lime
We all sit around
Talking and remembering
Uncle Ray
And all them funny things he said
It’s quite a day and honey
If I have learned anything
It’s that you taste life to the full before you’re dead
So I need to get that taste of life here on my lips
The place it tastes the sweetest is that
Space between your…
Sugar
You gotta gimme gimme some of that sugar
Why don't ya gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
Sugar
Why don't ya gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme some of that sugar
