Chocolate Saved My Life

Lyrics

[Intro] [SPOKEN BUT IN A CAMPAIGN / ARGUMENTATIVE VOICE] Oh, right… I’m telling you… Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I’m telling YOU that this chocolate is innocent… Yeah, here’s why… here’s why… Hit It!!! [VERSE 1 - SUNG RESTRAINED] Monday broke my spirit, Tuesday stole my smile Wednesday called a meeting I was destined to lose Then you showed up wrapped in gold beside the kitchen light One square turned the whole week round and made the wrong feel right [PRE-CHORUS -BEGINS TO BUILD] Thursday came around and the bills landed in You melted sweetly and pulled me in Friday came, I should’ve been out feeling fine Instead I was home with you by half-past nine No judgment, no questions, no alibi Just a little brown miracle saying, “Baby, try” [CHORUS - CATCHY - FULL] Chocolate saved my life, hallelujah, testify Through the thick and through the thin, you were always by my side Delicious, comforting, divine, and loyal to the end Without chocolate, tell me, where would we be, my friend? Chocolate saved my life, somebody ring the Cadbury bell From the biscuit to the truffle, you know me way too well I was down, you brought me back, with a caramel surprise Chocolate saved my life—yes, CHOCOLATE saved my life! [Verse 2] You came to every breakup, every awkward work meal You healed a paper cut I got while opening a seal You stood beside my treadmill when my motivation fled Then comforted my feelings with hazelnuts just before bed [Pre-Chorus] When my inbox screamed and my phone lit up red You said, “One more piece, there will be no regret” When the haters choose to try to tear me down You said, “have a square, turn that frown upside down” [Chorus] Chocolate saved my life, hallelujah, testify Through the thick and through the thin, you were always by my side Delicious, comforting, divine, and loyal to the end Without chocolate, tell me, where would we be, my friend? Chocolate saved my life, somebody ring the Lindt bell From the biscuit to the truffle, you know me way too well I was down, you brought me back, with a caramel surprise Chocolate saved my life—yes, CHOCOLATE saved my life! [Bridge] Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate too Every shade of salvation tastes, so different every time If trouble knocks, I’ll let it wait outside I’ve got a family bar and the time is on my side [Breakdown] Who got me through the deadline? Chocolate! Who forgave my midnight crimes? Chocolate! Who was there when nobody called? Chocolate! Who told me to feel good and delivers every time Chocolate! [Final Chorus] Chocolate saved my life, hallelujah, testify Through the thick and through the thin, you were always by my side Delicious, comforting, divine, and loyal to the end Without chocolate, tell me, where would we be, my friend? Chocolate saved my life, let the whole room testify If we’re here by sheer hunger, then praise the sweet supply Take a bite and raise it high, let the cocoa testify Chocolate saved my life—now pass the box, and don’t ask why! [Outro] Thank you to the Chocolate, for getting me through. [SPOKEN / GOSPEL TO LOW KEY ENDING] You know what to do. One for the road? Absolutely.
