Tell Your Sins to the Pancakes
by @danielkelly
Liner Notes
Lyrics
C G I’m telling my sins to the pancakes, C G As I gobble another one down, D C G All swimming in sweet maple syrup, Am D G with a whipped cream, and crisp bacon crown,
I’ve been a bad boy most of summer, I laughed when I should have been sad, I left all my dreams in the cupboard, And bunch of excuses, I’ve had,
This lent I will give up on trying, To please all the voices outside, I’ll focus on still meditation, I’ll hang on to my courage and pride,
I’ll wipe off the ash from my forehead, From the goddess we burned in the night, I’ll stand in the doorway of changes, And hope I keep choosing the light.
Comments
I'm not sure if summer sinning has a different flavour to winter sinning, but it is a question worth pondering.
This is so fun, love the cheekiness and earthly wisdom of these lyrics.
Love the title/ first line. Some interesting thoughts under the lighter chorus lyrics.
Well I did enjoy that one. A fun starting point, but with a deeper message. I liked the melody too.
Thanks Edwin, I am very excited to hear your Gumby song.
A fun song. I have to admit my hemispheric bias threw me off about being a bad boy most of the summer!
