I Ate Too Much Cheese

Versuri

[Verse 1] I found your note beside the cheddar drawer Said you couldn't watch me do this anymore The cracker box was empty, the midnight moon was high I swore I'd only have one slice, then I ate the whole supply [Pre-Chorus] Now the porch chair groans beneath me And my blue jeans won't forgive me [Chorus] I ate too much cheese, darling, that's the truth Brie on my fingers, queso on my boots I lost your love somewhere near the provolone Now my stomach's got a sorrow of its own If regret had a flavor, it'd be sharp and aged I ate too much cheese, and you walked away [Verse 2] The neighbors heard me crying by the fridge With a wheel of gouda balanced on the bridge Between my pride and hunger, I made one final plea Then folded like a napkin when I saw that mozzarella brie [Pre-Chorus] Now the dog won't sit beside me Even he knows what it did to me [Chorus] I ate too much cheese, darling, that's the truth Blue mold in the daylight, nacho dust on my tooth I lost your love somewhere near the pepper jack And every little snack keeps bringing memories back If regret had a flavor, it'd be sharp and aged I ate too much cheese, and you walked away [Bridge] Tomorrow I'll be stronger, I'll swear off every rind But there's a little slice of Swiss still running through my mind I hear the deli case calling like a lonesome freight train And I know I'll break my promise when it starts to rain [Final Chorus] I ate too much cheese, darling, that's the truth Cream in my coffee, parmesan on my boots I lost your love somewhere near the cottage cheese Now I'm begging for forgiveness on my hands and knees If regret had a flavor, it'd be sharp and aged I ate too much cheese, and you walked away [Outro] The fridge light fades, the county sleeps I count the crumbs and try to breathe I ate too much cheese
