[ Featuring Cabe ]
I found it in a thrift store
Far from fifth avenue
It had a little yellow sticker
Marked in Sharpie it read minus one
One dollar, did I lose
But I gained a water stained
Stainless steel appliance
Front and center in my living room
It's the find of a lifetime
Exactly what I never knew I needed
And now what I could never live without
It's a wonderful toaster (A really wonderful toaster)
Toasts my bread everyday (Every living day)
With 9 precision settings
For a rainbow of crispy brown (Waiting for that that popping sound)
My morning multigrain (Sprouted barley-n-oats)
Doctor's orders, breakfast torture
No, I don't believe it's butter
Clogging up the neurons in my brain
It's the find of a lifetime
Exactly what I never knew I needed
And now what I could never live without
But then one dreadful morning
Toaster coils glowing
Charring pizza toppings from yesterday's reheat
There were sparks, pops, and flares
Smoke engulfed the air
Withering the waffle I was dying to eat
It was the find of a lifetime
Exactly what I never knew I needed
And now what I'll forever live without
And now what I'll forever live without
And now what I'll forever live without
