john shuttleworth - i can't go back to savoury now lyrics

my wife mary made a lovely shepherd’s pie and peas
with carrots and gravy, oh and cabbage as an additional green
i said that looks fantastic love and i tucked in hungrily
my daughter karen didn’t, something i wish i’d seen
for soon my plate was empty, i said “mary, is there any more?”
she said “no, love, but its treacle sponge for afters” and i said “phwoar”
i’d had a couple of mouthfuls, when i heard karen declare
“i can’t eat any more of this shepherds pie mum”
well it filled me with despair
(because if i’d known that i wouldn’t have started my sweet)

but i can’t go back to savoury now
that shepherd’s pie was stunning
but i’m, halfway through my pudding
i can’t go back to savoury now
my taste buds would go crazy
and i can’t go back to savoury now
(’cause you can’t can you?)

my tummy was in turmoil, i was panicked and confused
and as karen’s dinner grew colder, so did my sweet
for my pleasure in that treacle sponge was now m-ssively reduced
by the sight of fluffy potato, and glistening meat

take this plate from me oh lord, before i go insane
should i press on with my afters, or go back to my main?

oh i can’t go back to savoury now
that shepherd’s pie was stunning
but i’m, halfway through my pudding
i can’t go back to savoury now, oh no
my taste buds would go crazy
and i can’t go back to savoury now

i can’t go back, i won’t go back
i’d love to go back but i mustn’t do that
i can’t go back, i won’t go back
i’d love to go back obviously, but i mustn’t do that

at that moment i heard a sound, a scr-pe of knife on plate
as i watched karen’s dinner go in the dog’s dish
my appet-te now gone, my pudding suffered the same fate
i can only -ssume this appalling outcome
was god’s wish

’cause i can’t go back to savoury

i can’t go back to savoury now
that shepherd’s pie was stunning
but i’m halfway through my pudding
i can’t go back to savoury now
my taste buds would go crazy
and i can’t go back to savoury now

i can’t go back to savoury… now
