lyrics

Music/Lyrics: Henrik Widegren

There is a principle
Called the sausage principle
It says: If you love something, leave it that way
And never find out how it is made
I love to sing
I love how voices ring
But I had to see it to be satisfied
And this is what it looks like inside:

A lovely note comes from a slimy throat
The vocal cords don’t win beauty awards
It may seem strange, but nothing’s wrong
An ugly tube makes a pretty song

Now that I know
I must let it go
Jussi Björling, Judy Garland and Maria Carey
I love you even though your throats look scary
So when your lover sings
Smile and pull him closer
Listen to his magic music, look into his eyes
And whisper: “I love your mucosa”

A pretty waltz comes from hideous vaults
A melody is just anatomy
The very source of a lullaby
Will probably make the baby cry

A smell of rose goes to a snotty nose
Vivaldi’s tone comes through a wax-filled zone
A tender loin and a good Champagne
Goes to a sticky gut and a gooey brain
A sticky gut and a gooey brain
