Marlows - 09/3/10 (Lyric)

I woke up from my nap today

And found I yearned for food.

But my cupboards were all empty

And stealing would be rude.

Thus I thought the smartest thing

Would be to buy some snacks.

After all they're all quite cheap

And they always help me relax.

Through the store I wandered 'bout

Searching near and far.

I thought for sure I was out of luck

Til I saw a chocolate bar.

Chocolate sounded great, of course,

But by itself was lacking.

So I decided to purchase more - 

Graham crackers for stacking!

To me this seemed a massive feast

Filled with sugar galore.

But alas crackers and chocolate

Call for something more.

I knew just what this something was.

Right now my s'more lay fallow.

In order to fix this situation,

I would need marshmallow!

I roamed that store from wall to wall.

Finding the right aisle was a feat!

But my hopes were soon dashed to the ground:

They'd sold out of my treat.

With resigned mind and heavy heart

I returned back to my room.

But soon my heart was picked back up.

Another possibility loomed!

If I could only borrow some!

My needs would soon be met!

In a dorm of ninety plus

Someone has mallows, I bet!

My search, it was not fruitless.

My efforts, not in vain.

I found a bag of marshmallows,

And it was worth all the strain.

I laid the crackers down first

And piled high the chocolate.

And soon enough the mallows melted

Once the fire was lit.

I picked it up with bated breath.

My heart was all aflutter.

I would not trade this awesome treat,

I'll simply eat another.
