Good Cooking

I need some good cooking
Need some good cooking
I need filling up with Vitamins B12, C and A
I need some good cooking
But the back of my cupboard ain't too good looking
And a little bit of loving on the side wouldn't go astray

Well it's the end of the month and there's no money left
I've got a bag of chick peas and a loaf of bread
A knackered bag of lentils and a solitary can of beer
There's a pint of milk that's older than me
Something brown and furry that's supposed to be cheese
And a bit of frozen pizza in the freezer from the Thatcher years

I need some good cooking
Need some good cooking
I need filling up with Vitamins B12, C and A
I need some good cooking
But the back of my cupboard ain't too good looking
And a little bit of loving on the side wouldn't go astray

Well you can't make a curry from an oxo cube
There's no taramasalata in a toothpaste tube
The bank inside the sofa can't buy another bag of chips
I want to dine out in style but i'm bloody skint
I've got 27p and a polo mint
And a natural aversion to another buttered weetabix

I need some good cooking
Need some good cooking
I need filling up with Vitamins B12, C and A
I need some good cooking
But the back of my cupboard ain't too good looking
And a little bit of loving on the side wouldn't go astray

So I'll have a bit of beer and I'll boil the peas
Add a dash of gravy and avoid the cheese
Put them altogether and it tastes like crap
So I'll stick it in the bin and run around to your flat

I know that you get paid
On a different day
And if you let me in your Larder you can steal my heart away

Hey!

I need some good cooking
Need some good cooking
I need filling up with Vitamins B12, C and A
I need some good cooking
But the back of my cupboard ain't too good looking
And a little bit of loving on the side wouldn't go astray
