life of pie

life of pie
words and music by t. w. tendrils and robert voyer

when i was dough
balled and ready to be rolled
i asked my baker please
what will i be
in time she replied
and said these words to me

ah, oh, mm, oo
ah, oh, mm, oo

when i was crust
stuffed and ready to be baked
with confections
and i'd question
how will i taste
and why am i a pie
why am i a pie

ah, oh, mm, oo
ah, oh, mm, oo

there once was a race of tiny men
lemon meringues were made by them
for each one among them loved a pie
they held such regard for their rolling pins
that they'd liken the things they loved most to them
their greatest of poets sounds like

ah, oh, mm, oo
ah, oh, mm, oo

ah
