Let Me Cook You Dinner

I tried to bake a cake

But it exploded all over

And smoke fills the kitchen

When I use the toaster

I tried to make pancakes

But what a runny mess

And when I butter a bagel

It jumps onto my dress

I tried to make scrambled eggs

(Ok, they turned out fine)

But cranberry muffins

Were a complete waste of time

I would still make you dinner

Oh, yes I would try

As long as you don’t mind 

A meltdown, a cry

...  I would create romance

With candles and music

So you would think

You’d been struck by cupid

Now close your eyes

And don’t look at the food

I'm sure you don’t want to 

Ruin the mood

The kitchen's a disaster,

I look worse for wear

But I can’t think of anything better

Than you across the table, there!
