M.C. Frontalot - Mornings Come And Go lyrics

[Verse 1: MC Frontalot] He came looking for work from an ogre Why would you do that? It's tough all over The monster seemed nice at first, offered one duty per day The worst he could say About his boss was it promised to eat him If he didn't finish shoveling the stable. Exceedingly Easy, isn't it? The boy agrees Kicks his heels when the ogre leaves Now the Master Maid had a job there too There were always boys. They were always new They were always eaten at the end of the day On account of the curse on the goat dookie She tells this one about the magic pitchfork: Best advice that a boy could wish for Rest of the afternoon, they discuss it A day's acquaintance, already trusted Confidantes in the house of dangers Ogre's home! It roars and rages “Live the night, but don't bless your fortune; I'll have another task in the morning for you.” [Hook: Marian Call] The Master Maid says you take it real slow The Master Maid says mornings come and mornings go The Master Maid says you take it real slow The Master Maid says mornings come and go [Verse 2: MC Frontalot] He wakes to the dawning Before he can yawn, there's an ogre on him Telling him to round up a flaming horse Ogre's sure got demanding chores Heed the counsel of the Master Maid: Use the hidden bridle, get the stallion tamed And every morning this is how it's played She instructs, he survives a day: How to take the sand and spin it Into rope, and what the limit Is collecting fire taxes From the underworld.

Not any, ‘cept for certain pursuit Plenty of the lady's girlish virtues Get expended. Hair comb, flung Whence it landed, briar sprung And though it's stung, beast presses onward Her mirror, thrown, wreaks the contours Of an icy mountain range which Shatters fast. Behold, the Master Maid dips Vast ocean from a perfume flask Ogre drinks it, bursts in half! At the shore, the boy must venture homeward Tells his cohort, “wait here, no more Tears. I'll return to claim you Once my life's prepared. And hey, do You believe in love?” This maiden Waited every day in the calendar, patiently Knew the boy would find her Come some morning, wear those blinders [Hook: Marian Call] [Outro: Marian Call] The Master Maid said The Master Maid said The Master Maid said The Master Maid said mornings come and go Morning comes, morning goes Morning comes And the first shall be last and the last shall be first And the first shall be last and the last shall be first and...
