Nick Shoulders
Toast First
[Verse 1]
Didn’t burn the toast, the potatoes cooked through
I made up some beans like in England they do
The eggs had a good run, I guess we did too
If I had known what to say, I’d have said it to you

[Verse 2]
Give a name to a feeling just to try and explain
But even then there’s no good way to say
Without giving more credit to words than they’re due
If I had known what to say, I’d have said it to you

[Chours]
And I’ve got a pastime, lack of something to do
I tried forgetting as often as Jesus got rocks in his shoes

[Verse 3]
I’m quiet in my worries and act out in pride
An old love takes the long road from crossing my mind
Just cause you didn’t know it, doesn’t make it new news
If I had known what to say, I’d have said it to you

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And I’ve got a pastime, lack of something to do
I tried forgetting as often as Jesus got rocks in his shoes
[Verse 1]
Didn’t burn the toast, the potatoes cooked through
I made up some beans like in England they do
The eggs had a good run, I guess we did too
If I had known what to say, I’d have said it to you
