Liner Notes

This piece of #ukulele #nonsense arose from a conversation with a filker (Ewan Clark, who has indicated that he is willing to take a share of the blame :)) at the UK filk con last weekend. He said this little story sounded like it could turn into a song and perhaps I could be the one to try.

I mostly say that so that I don't have to take all of the blame. Still, #sorrynotsorry

Lyrics

I [C]knew I was in [G]trouble I got [F]shivers and a [C]twitch
When the [F]one I incon[C]venienced turned [F]out to be a [G]witch

I [F]thought I had got [G]lucky when she [C]blurted out the [F]curse
That [F]I must eat [C]delicious food [F]suppose it could be [G]worse

But [F]later at the [G]table re[C]ceiving my [Am]order
The [F]waiter laid the [G]bread and a [C]glass of [Am]water
And a [F]bowl [G]of
[NC]Gazpacho [C]soup

It [C]wasn't what I [G]asked for but [F]still it tasted [C]great
Then I [F]heard a distant [C]cackle as he [F]gathered up the [G]plates

And I [F]thought that we were [G]even now the [F]witch had made me [G]pay
As I [F]pondered the next [C]morning what I'd [F]have to start the [G]day

[F]Pour out the [G]corn flakes or a [C]pair of shredded [Am]wheat
But [F]every time I [G]breakfast it turns [C]out I have to [Am]eat
A [F]bowl [G]of
[NC]Gazpacho [C]soup

And [F]every lunch or [G]dinner, [C]travel near or [F]far
[F]Sitting down or [C]takeaway, a [F]cafe or a [G]bar

[F]Chocolate or a [G]truffle or a [C]pie or piece of [Am]cake
[F]Anything I [G]roast or fry or [C]anything I [Am]bake
[F]Toastie or a [G]muffin or a [C]hunk of well done [Am]steak
No [F]matter what I [G]want to get I'll [C]always have to [Am]take
A [F]bowl [G]of
[NC]Gazpacho [C]soup

It's [F]true what they [C]say
As I've [F]always been [Am]told
Re[F]venge is a [C]dish that is
[F]Best served [G]cold

What[F]ever's in the [G]oven, what[C]ever I pre[Am]pare
I'll [F]set it on the [G]crockery but [C]always waiting [Am]there
Some [F]delicious [G]
[NC]Gazpacho [C]soup

[F]Even Piers [G]Morgan gets his [C]vegan sausage [Am]roll
But [F]all I can look [G]forward to is [C]yet another [Am]bowl
Of [F]delicious [G]
[NC]Gazpacho [C]soup
