I Miss Cibo Matto

I miss Cibo Matto. No one sings a song about food like them. Today I will share the lyrics of my favorite Cibo Matto song, and since I couldn’t upload my mp3 of Birthday Cake, I am going to share the Know Your Chicken Video.

SHUT UP AND EAT
TOO BAD NO BON APPÉTIT
SHUT UP AND EAT
YOU KNOW MY LOVE IS SWEET

Yes, I’m cooking for my son and his wife
It’s his 30th birthday
Pour berries into a bowl
Add milk of two months ago
“It’s moldy . . . mom, isn’t it?”
I don’t give a flying fuck though

REPEAT

It’s food nouveau
It’s the shape of love

Beat it! Beat it up!
Extra sugar Extra salt Extra oil and MSG
Extra sugar Extra salt Extra oil and MSG

REPEAT

You were born in the 60’s
We made a war with the Vietnamese
We loved LSD We died easily
Can we just say c’est la vie?
So what! Say what! For your own sake
Do you have a headache or heartbreak?
Are you made or broken by the birthday cake?
You may be slow on the uptake
I pour pot in the birthday cake
So what! Say what! For my own sake
Watch out yo! Here I come yo!
I’m gonna change to a rattlesnake
Turn up the TV! Do you agree?
I’m talking turkey Take it from me
I’m gonna show my love for my dove
“But it’s moldy . . . mom, isn’t it?”

Extra sugar Extra salt Extra oil and MSG
Extra sugar Extra salt Extra oil and MSG

And…
