[Verse] Out in the woods where the wild winds wail I tried my hand at the breakfast grail With a pan in hand and a heart so stout But the fire had plans to twist about [Chorus] Oops I burned the pancakes black as coal A smoky stack They’ve swallowed me whole Sing a song for the flapjack grave I’m the sailor of this breakfast wave [Verse 2] The batter it bubbled The butter did melt I felt like a chef with a champion's belt But the flames they cackled They danced They jeered And my breakfast dreams up and disappeared [Prechorus] Oh the smoke did rise The birds did flee Even the squirrels laughed at me [Chorus] Oops I burned the pancakes black as coal A smoky stack They’ve swallowed me whole Sing a song for the flapjack grave I’m the sailor of this breakfast wave [Bridge] The campfire laughed It sang its tune Mocking my spatula Cursing my spoon I waved my hat I yelled in vain But those pancakes won’t come back again
