Cafe La Rue

[Intro]
Welcome my friends
To Cafe La Rue
Here is a menu for you to look through

Here at the cafe
You get to choose
Any life that seems delicious to you

[Verse 1]
Just to get started
There's mother and wife
Some people don't much like the taste of this life

So if spice is a price
That you're willing to bear
It pairs awfully well with a saucy affair

You could try politician
An excellent choice
Illicit endeavors, an oversized voice

But if you want something sweet
It's a turn for the worse
This dish always ends with no just desserts

[Chorus]
Are you crushed, are you steamed, are you fried
Tell us what kind of life would you like
It's a diet you'll down 'till you die
But darling, you get to decide

[Verse 2]
There's lottery winner
That one's served rare
I'm afraid that we're fresh out of tech millionaire

You won't get full
Though you'll feel dignified
'Cause those richer dishes are hollow inside

We've got child, mistreated
And husband, abused
And prisoner who has been falsely accused

Every once in a while
No matter your wish
You might find some trouble snuck onto your dish

[Chorus]
Are you crushed, are you steamed, are you fried
Tell us what kind of life would you like
It's a diet you'll down 'till you die
But darling, you get to decide

[Verse 3]
Let's hope the meal's massive
And not just a snack
'Cause if you don't like it, you can't send it back

No matter your order
The time or the place
All you can do is just savor the taste

When life's out of control
And it seems to you
Like a seven-course meal you were forced to sit through

If ever you thought
That your life had picked you
Remember you once sat at Cafe La Rue

[Chorus]
Are you crushed, are you steamed, are you fried
Tell us what kind of life would you like
It's a diet you'll down 'till you die
But darling, you get to decide
