Cecil Pavlova
Teminite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not far from the place you are now
There was an epidemic and someone of curse sweeping the land
There was an abundance of cakes and pies
From the far reaches of the earth
That would bring wonder and amazement
To the soul of any man who witnessed it
But there was one final thing that was missing
Invented something
So delicious, so scrumptious, so bursting with yellow flavor
That it changed the face of pie forever
Everybody come on custard
Give me back my custard
Give me back my custard
Give me back my custard
A young boy by the name of Cecil Pavlova invented something
That it changed the face of pie forever
Give me back my custard
Give me back my custard
Give me back my custard
Give me back my custard
