Just Dessert (Selzer's Virtual Pub)

from Mary Crowell's Patreon: Year Six by Mary Crowell

about

This music video first appeared on Adam Selzer's Time Travel Pub Crawl "Drink Like the Dickens" on Christmas Eve 2020. Adam paid his musical artists including Mary, so this video is supported by Adam (and HIS patrons on Patreon.) Mary's patrons on Patreon have helped pay for her audio and video recording software and equipment--not to mention offered her so much friendship and support over the years, so they are also credited and thanked at the end of the video.

"Just Dessert" is a rather humorous take on murder and was inspired by a D&D campaign created by Mary's husband, Wesley.

Just Dessert (lyrics)

Copyright 2007 by Mary Crowell

(Inspired by a dinner and duel between the characters Moxie and Mathias.)

I remember

As I butter my bread

You so easily led me

Out of my head with the

Words that you said.

Oh, Darlin’,

I’m gonna kill you!

I nibble on cheese and

Think of your treacheries.

You are the reason

That our destinies

Are dark. Yes, Dear.

You’re gonna die.

CHORUS

Oh, I’m thinking as I sip my wine,

You’re debonair, Your looks’, sublime.

But, Darlin’, oh Darlin’,

You’re gonna die.

I remember,

As I spoon up my soup,

Jumping through hoops,

Mind led in loops.

Oh, I was your dupe.

Darlin’,

I’m gonna kill you!

As I sample the greens,

I’m choosing my means,

Pondering scenes

Played out with a fiend

I know. Yes, Sweet.

You’re gonna die.

CHORUS

[Instrumental]

I’ll remember

That we dined on filet,

Revenge our entrée

Shared on this day that

I made you pay.

Oh, Darlin’,

I’m gonna kill you!

And I’ll remember

Sharing a quip

As our brandies we sipped.

Then I curled my lip

E’er your heart out I ripped.

Oh, Darlin’!

You’re gonna die!

LAST CHORUS

Oh, I’m thinking as I smile at you

The lies you tell, the things you do.

You know that part of just dessert

Is making sure you’re gonna hurt.

Oh, Darlin’, oh Darlin’,

I’m gonna kill you.

Oh, Darlin’, my sweet Darlin’,

You’re gonna die.

You’re gonna die.

You’re gonna die.

[Spoken: Hey! What’s in this sauce?]
