lyrics

I only meant to make a meal for myself
Nothing fancy, nothing special
And I don't know how it happened
But it turned out really well, to put it mildly
Oh and I knew that you couldn't make it
Cause you were on the otherside of the world
And it's not the kind of thing that I could leave in the freezer
It just wouldn't be the same

Oh why did I decide to
Make the most delicious thing
That I have ever made, today
Hey, I'll have to try again
But there was never a recipe
It happened all so fast

I couldn't bear to witness it alone
So I made calls, to all my friends in town
I said, hurry, come on over, if you're hungry
I made dinner, I think it's pretty good
But everyone was either busy, or they were just too full
Nobody could make it
I tried to tell them they were really missing out
They expressed regret, but that was that

I ran outside, to my neighbour's door
I rang the bell, but they weren't at home
I started shouting in the streets to try to find someone
But people just gave me looks
I even invited, some strangers inside
I told them I had made some really good food
They just ran away, so I went back to the house
And I ate it all, alone
