Let's Eat Out

Written by Bootsauce, from The Brown Album, 1990

(Fume: It's just the right thing to do...and a tasty way to do it)
When I walked in that door with that grocery bag,
You took one look and you said, "Let's eat out"
I said, "I don't wanna bitch, I don't wanna nag,
Only wanna hear you shout, (let's eat out)
As we dropped to that floor and you lost those drawers,
I began to scream, (let's eat out)
I said, "Beauty's in the mind, beauty's in the face,
It's all over this place" (let's eat out)

Always gonna take you home
(na na na na na na na na)
Oh yeah, I rather wanna make you moan
(na na na na na na na na)
Ah yeah, always disconnect the phone
(na na na na na na na na)
I'm gonna lick you like an ice cream cone
(na na na na na na na na)
And I-- woo

Then the neighbors came down, I started to quake
I wanted to shake and bake (let's eat out)
Now I loved Betty Crocker, I grabbed Aunt Jemima,
They were doing the Tender Flake (let's eat out)

Always gonna take you home
(na na na na na na na na)
Oh yeah, I rather wanna make you moan
(na na na na na na na na)
Ah yeah, always disconnect the phone
(na na na na na na na na)
I'm gonna lick you like an ice cream cone
(na na na na na na na na)
And I-- woo

(Sample A: What are you people, on dope?!)
(Sample B: Oh yeah!!) x 8

When I walked in that door with that beef in my hand,
You took one look and you said, "Let's eat out"
I said, "I don't wanna bitch, I don't wanna nag,
Only wanna hear you shout, (let's eat out)
I said, "Beauty's in the mind, beauty's in the face,
It's all over this place" (let's eat out)

Always gonna take you home
(na na na na na na na na)
Oh yeah, I rather wanna make you moan
(na na na na na na na na)
Ah yeah, always disconnect the phone
(na na na na na na na na)
I'm gonna lick you like an ice cream cone
(na na na na na na na na)
And I-- woo!!

(Sample B: Oh yeah!!) x 4

Aah, let's eat out!
Come on...!
(Sample B: Oh yeah!!)
All right (let's eat out)
Baby, baby, let's eat out
Come on (let's eat out)
Yeah, yeah, come on, let's do it
Let's eat out

(Sample A: What are you people, on dope?!)

Notes:

• The opening line is a reference to a series of Quaker Oats commercials from the late 1980s to early 1990s that starred Wilford Brimley.
• Sample A comes from the 1982 film "Fast Times At Ridgemont High", spoken by the character Mr. Hand. Its pitch here is slightly higher than the actual movie audio.
