[Verse 1] The morning it happened I was in my bed The sun shone on my face My skin was red My mouth was dry Just like a napkin My bed was wet From the night before
I poured myself A cold glass of water It tasted like a pair of jeans So I went to the kitchen to refill my cup Opened up the fridge I couldn't find anything
But a lonesome slice of fresh white bread It felt like a sign Felt like that bread was mine I put the bread in the toaster I pushed the button and watched the walls of the toaster
[Chorus] Begin to glow like the fires in the fields of the dune in world war one Felt like I was standing there in south west France 1914 with my hands on my gun Bodies lying on the ground my neighbours house it had burned down And all that remained Was a toaster
[Verse 2] I opened my eyes and the red sun now shone black with smoke No switch was functional and no appliance was worked in my favour I was worried my neighbours had awoken through a war they had no part in I rushed into the tree to sink a cone of wax As so I could peer into the metal box I'd practically installed on the ceiling Just inches from my peripheral view I used a wooden chair to stand upon I was shocked when I noticed I'd shrunk to the size of a penny
[Chorus] And they glowed like the fires in the fields of the dune in world war one Felt like I was standing there in south west France 1914 with my hands on my gun Bodies lying on the ground, my neighbours house it had burned down and all that remained was a toaster
[Outro] All that remained Was a toaster All that remained x5 Was a toaster LyricsFreak
