Pete Townshend - Cookin' Lyrics
I didn't find out I was a coward till I ran away
Didn't think I was a hypocrite till I tried to pray
Didn't realize I was lost till I started lookin'
I didn't know how much I love you till I tasted your cookin'
Didn't felt like a petty larcenist till I forged a check
Didn't think I could hardly read till I stated bookin'
I didn't know how much I love you till I tasted your cookin'
For your garlic flavored steak I'd suffer nightmares
For your mashed potatoes, I'd even dig the dirt
For your roast beef, I'd even get a haircut
And to keep the larder full, I'd even work
But sometimes I like to get stoved more than you
Despite the fact there's no cook quite as good lookin'
Didn't know how much I loved you till I tasted your cookin'
Didn't know how much I loved you till I tasted your cookin'
I didn't know how much I love you till I tasted your cookin'

Pete Townshend Cookin' Comments
For some reason this reminds me of a manga that dealt with urban legends, namely a girlfriend who was becoming the infamous slit-mouth woman who asks her victims if she is pretty. There comes a point where her boyfriend admits she isn't that pretty, but when he says she was a "good cook" you know things are not as bad as they seem. :)
love me some scoop back in the mid-eighties. this song reminds me of dylan's country pie on nashville skyline
