Chocolate Saved My Life

Lyrics

[INTRO] SPOKEN Oh, mercy me! Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I’m telling YOU that this chocolate is innocent… Now boys and girls, put that kettle on! [VERSE 1] 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] 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] 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? [VERSE 2] Saturday whispers, the world is dull and grey Sunday’s quiet hum, but you’re the spark of play When the night draws curtain, and the thoughts begin to creep Your dark velvet whisper cuts the shadows deep You’re the secret in my coffee, the lift in my brew You’re the silent hug when the day feels too new When the world’s a battlefield, I press your taste The taste that tells me, “you’ve won this race” [PRE-CHORUS] Monday’s back, I’m chasing deadlines in the light You’re the pause that keeps me breathing, the sweet respite Even as the calendar spins, I find a rhyme You’re the comfort that turns the clock in time [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? [BRIDGE]
