So what you're trying to say is... your story's done
And your chances of a better life are next to none
Did I happen to hear you right?
Sure you've slipped on some peels
Brother can't you see
You're only in the first course of your meal?
I've been there too
Life ain't being nice to ya, you got nothing else to lose
It's never in between
Sometimes you get leftovers, sometimes all you can eat
So if you're feelin' tired
And the clouds won't roll away
And you're down right to the wire
Don't you know dessert is coming soon
So hold on to your spoon!
Your future's lookin' bright, but you're feelin' low
I can see it in your face
You say you always find yourself between a rock and a hard place
I have a favor if you please
Bite your tongue
I hope you saved some room, you got it wrong
The best is yet to come
I've been there too
Life ain't being nice to ya, you got nothing else to lose
It's never in between
Sometimes you get leftovers, sometimes all you can eat
So if you're feelin' tired
And the clouds won't roll away
And you're down right to the wire
Don't you know dessert is coming soon
So hold on to your spoon!
(Don't you know dessert is coming soon?)
So just take one more bite
(Don't you know dessert is coming soon?)
It's only one more bite
(Don't you know dessert is coming soon?)
C'mon just take one more bite
'Cause you know the chocolate ice cream's coming
To make everything alright
So if you're feelin' tired
And the clouds won't roll away
And you're down right to the wire
Don't you know dessert is coming soon
So hold on to your spoon!
