While many think pie for breakfast is in decline, the Home Items girls are doing their best to bring it back. Do we care that men might look down upon us for eating something that might give us buxom figures (see previous post)? NO! We're gonna eat pie for breakfast if we damn well want to and on top of that, we're even gonna sing about it!
Here it is folks. The lyrics to the hit Home Items song, Pie For Breakfast, by Michelle Crowder:
Sometimes I don't want to have a cereal
Sometimes I don't want to fry an egg
Sometimes I don't want to toast a bagel
Sometimes I don't want chicken legs
Chorus:I want pie for breakfast (pie for breakfast, pie for breakfast)
Pie for breakfast
Sometimes I go out to a restaurant
Sometimes I eat it at my home
Sometimes I have a muffin at practice
Whether together or all alone
Chorus: I want pie for breakfast (pie for breakfast, pie for breakfast)
Pie for breakfast
Bridge: Keep it in the fridge or keep it on the windowsill
Peel away the foil for flaky fruity frill!
Sometimes I don't want instant breakfast
Sometimes I don't want a cocoa wheats
Sometimes I don't want orange marmalade
Sometimes I don't want bread with sweet meats
Chorus: I want pie for breakfast (pie for breakfast, pie for breakfast)
Pie for breakfast

ReplyDeletelong live breakfast!
the pie you made is absolutely amazing.
I grew up in Waterville, Vermont on my maternal family's dairy farm. My grandparents, uncles, and cousins ate pie for breakfast! And I'm only 29 years old - so the tradition lingered at least into the 1970s and '80s in rural Vermont. And apple pie was always, ALWAYS eaten with a chunk of sharp cheddar cheese! And probably a nip of breakfast booze on the sly.
