RECIPE


My stomach’s rumbling like thunder on a rainy night
I’m not thinking straight—you know I don’t feel right.
I need something sweet to eat but not the same old thing…

I need a Recipe (something new!)
I need a Recipe (something good!)
Make something I’ve never had before
Share it with friends coming through my door
I need a Recipe…mmmm
a Recipe...

So many possibilities, kinda like this perfect day.
Gonna mix my favorite things in just the right way.
Chocolate and blueberries and a little sweet whipped cream...

I need a Recipe (something new!)
I need a Recipe (something good!)
Something I can call my own creation
A delicious dish that’ll sweep the nation!
Little bit of this, little bit of that
Little bit of this, little bit of that

Rodney’s rap:
“What’s up kids…grab yourself a bowl
We’re gonna bring it on down with a whole lotta soul.
Flour, salt, sugar, baby, now we’re on a roll.
Gonna make a big mess,
Gonna get some on the floor.
Granny Smith apples-they are so good for you.
Have your dad peel and slice ‘em in a bowl for two.
Brown sugar, pinch of cinnamon and some butter, too.
Mix it up, elbows deeps, flip it through and through.
Have your mom turn up the oven to 350 degrees and, shazam!
Put my pie in the oven if you please.

Making something I’ve never had before
Share it with friends coming through my door
A little bit of this, a little bit of that
I need a Recipe…mmmm
a Recipe...


Words & Music: L.Mathews, M. Gehl
