Lyrics
How Marvin eats his breakfast How Marvin eats his breakfast How Marvin eats his breakfast I love being Marvin I love being Marvin Marvin always eats The finest breakfast in town How Marvin eats his breakfast Everybody into the kitchen Here comes Marvin Banging his groin with his fist He mumbles in, to insist: No one looks busy in this kitchen And my breakfast isn't ready And my stomach aches I mean specifically the maid Who is reclining like she's laid the golden egg I want some chatter and some gruel Make me wanna drool Try to make me hungry Ooh, Ooh Cat got your tongue? Marvin always knows the sort of answers he'll allow I may be sly, dear, but not young "Wait until I'm older, then I'll kill you" is his one unspoken vow I need my breakfast now Everybody into the kitchen Here comes Marvin Aiming a gun at the maid He shoots her head Oh! Ah! She falls dead Oh, Jesus Christ, it wasn't loaded She's an actor from the old school And a lousy chef Haha I don't want miracles from heaven Just some eggies over spinach over toast No, I will not apologize! She should win a prize: "Very best...emoting" Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh That girl can't cook Maybe she can't cook, but have you seen her milk a cow? And I can read her like a book Marvin wouldn't read that kind of novel anyhow I need my breakfast Now People, people People, people Stop your staring Stop your staring People, people, stop your staring Can't you see my breakfast isn't Made yet People, people Stop your staring Get to work my breakfast isn't— Life is lonely Life is rotten And thankfully short Thankfully short Thankfully short Like Marvin Everybody into the kitchen Here comes M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m... Marvin! Marvin! Waving his hands like a twit He throws a fit Then a knife You call this breakfast on my birthday? This is sh*t This isn't breakfast I could crack your feet Oh no I mean for God's sake Am I talking to the wall? When I say breakfast I mean food I dreamt last night of hips and legs Now I want some eggs: Things I might relate to Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh I'm just a sprite Marvin underestimates the fear that he'll endow I'll wait here till you get it right! Do I? Do I really? Do I really have to show you people how? I need my breakfast Now
