The Dish Ran Away With The Spoon And Took the Saucer Hostage

dark folk, dark acoustic rock, dark alternative

[Long Intro]

[Verse 1] 
Well the teapot started gossipin’, the kettle blew its steam, 
The sugar bowl was tremblin’, like it woke up from a bad dream. 
The fork was in the corner, sayin’, “Things are gettin’ strange—
 That dish and spoon eloped last night, it’s hurting my brain.

[Chorus]
Oh the dish ran away with the spoon, 
And took the saucer hostage too, 
Now the cups won’t clink, the plates won’t stack, 
And the silverware don’t know exactly what to do!
 It’s a scandal in the kitchen, 
A porcelain hullabaloo— 
The dish ran away with the spoon, 
And the saucer’s cryin’ boo-hoo-hoo!

[Verse 2] 
The gravy boat is sinking, the salad bowl’s upset, 
The ladle swears he saw it all, but the napkin has regret.
 The butter knife’s suspicious, the soup spoon’s lost her cool—
 They tied the saucer to a chair, and now it looks a fool!

[Chorus] 
Oh the dish ran away with the spoon, 
And took the saucer hostage too, 
The coffee mug’s in panic, 
And the corkscrew’s hittin’ the brew. 
It’s a hostage situation, 
So the colander is sifting, but it hasn’t got a clue—
 The dish ran away with the spoon, 
And the saucer’s cryin’ boo-hoo-hoo!

[Bridge]
 Now the fridge is callin’ for justice, the blender’s spinnin’ lies,
 The rolling pin is furious, you can see it in her eyes.
 The toaster’s got his slots locked down, the oven’s runnin’ hot, 
While the butter dish is mutterin’, “This kitchen’s gone to pot!”

[Long Solo]

[Verse 3]
They mailed a note to Aunt Babs, cut from labels off the cans,
It read, “Get us clean and polished or we’ll carry out our plans.
We’re tired of sittin’ dirty, we want a cozy drawer—
And if our terms ain’t met by noon, you won’t see saucer no more!”

[Chorus] 
Oh the dish ran away with the spoon, 
And the saucer may never be free, 
Till the kettle makes a bargain, 
Over one last cup of tea. 
So raise your forks and spatulas, 
To chaos on the shelf—
 When the dish runs off with the spoon, 
You better guard your self!

[Outro]
Yes the dish ran off with the spoon…
… now the saucer’s suing too!

[Outro]

[End Song]
