[Verse 1] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe First I broke down some wheat and water Into tiny grains of sand And it all ran through my hands [Verse 2] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe Then I went and broke some eggs A couple was made out of concrete But eventually I got some shells on my feet [Chorus] And I cried in the aisles And I laughed in the aisles And I wept in the aisles And I danced in the aisles And I found you in the aisles And I fell for you in the aisles And I made cornbread [Verse 3] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe Next I got me some milk And it was quite the task To separate all the curds and whey [Verse 4] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe Finally I got some butter It was so much better After I skimmed all the fat from the cream [Chorus] And I cried in the aisles And I laughed in the aisles And I wept in the aisles And I danced in the aisles And I found you in the aisles And I fell for you in the aisles And I made cornbread [Verse 5] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe I put it all together And I made it just for you [Verse 6] Look Ma I made cornbread in the city From your recipe Now I put the cornbread in the city It was really quite the feat But it's all here on the plate
