Take A LOt

The ward potluck, I mean

Wonder what I’ll bring, mmm-mmm

Wonder what I’ll bring, mmm-mmm


Maybe Chicken à la King

or something with a zing

Yes I, wonder what I’ll bring, mmm-mmm

Wonder what I’ll bring, mmm-mmm


I just keep thinking

What if I brought nothing?

Would that be such a bad thing?

In my mind, thinking, “one time will be alright” 


'Cause the bakers’ gonna bake, bake, bake, bake, bake

And they’ll probably bake a cake, cake, cake, cake, cake

Baby, I'm just gonna take, take, take, take, take

Take a lot, take a lot


If someone brings a steak, steak, steak, steak, steak

I might get a tummy ache, ache, ache, ache, ache

Because I intend to take, take, take, take, take

I take a lot, I take a lot


It’s been a crazy day

My oven broke, okay?

At least, that’s what I’ll say, mmm-mmm

At least, that’s what I’ll say, mmm-mmm


It sure would save some time (sure would save some time)

And not to mention save a dime (it would save a dime)

Would that be such a crime? mmm-mmm

Would that be such a crime? mmm-mmm


I just keep thinking

What if I brought nothing?

Would that be such a bad thing?

In my mind, thinking, “one time will be alright” 


'Cause the bakers’ gonna bake, bake, bake, bake, bake

And they’ll probably bake a cake, cake, cake, cake, cake

Baby, I'm just gonna take, take, take, take, take

Take a lot, take a lot


If someone brings a steak, steak, steak, steak, steak

I might get a tummy ache, ache, ache, ache, ache

Because I intend to take, take, take, take, take

I take a lot, I take a lot


Take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot


Hey, hey, hey

Just think while you’ve been getting hot and tired kneading dough and slaving over the greasy, greasy stove of yours, 

you could’ve been kicking back with this sick thought:


“Life’s too short, for goodness sake

Just this once, you don’t have to bake”

But that’s a slippery slope, it might be a mistake

Cause every month since then, I just take, take, take


Yeah ohhh


'Cause the bakers’ gonna bake, bake, bake, bake, bake

And they’ll probably bake a cake, cake, cake, cake, cake

Baby, I'm just gonna take, take, take, take, take

Take a lot, take a lot


If someone brings a steak, steak, steak, steak, steak

I might get a tummy ache, ache, ache, ache, ache

Because I intend to take, take, take, take, take

I take a lot, I take a lot


Take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot


Take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot


Take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot, (I want to)

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot,

I, I, I take a lot, I take a lot
