Chicken Cordon Blues

Steve Goodman

Transposer:

Verse I When I first met you baby You fed me on chicken and wine It was steak and potatos and babe I sure felt fine But now all you feed me if the seaweed and the alfalfa sprouts sunflower seeds and I got my doubts Baby you left me here with the chicken cordon blues Verse II My stomach’s empty and all I got is food for thought I’ve been sittin’ here thinking Bout’ the twenty pounds of groceries we bought We bought ten pounds of wild rice five more of beans five pounds of granola and you know what that means I’m a regular fella and I got the chicken cordon blues Verse III I’m starved for affection and I don’t think I can stand no more this stuff is so strange the cockroaches moved next door don’t you see that old dog standing out there in the street with a big smile on his face cause they let him eat meat And i got you And I got the chicken I got you And I got the chicken I got you and I got the chicken cordon blues

La chanson raconte l'histoire d'un homme dont la vie amoureuse s'est transformée en un véritable désastre culinaire. Au début, sa partenaire le régalait avec des plats délicieux, mais maintenant, il se retrouve à manger des aliments insipides et sains, tels que des algues et des graines, qui ne lui apportent ni satisfaction ni réconfort. En plus de la mauvaise nourriture, il se sent délaissé et affamé d'affection, tandis que même les insectes semblent trouver mieux à manger. Cette situation évoque un mélange de nostalgie et de désespoir, où l'amour semble avoir perdu son goût.
