lyrics

Start with sweet and simple
It'll go with every meal.
Add a pinch of bitter truth
If you want to keep it real. (And seal the deal.)

The oil it will simmer
When the temperature is right.
Aromas fill the kitchen
And will whet your appetite.

In the first light of the morning
Till the sun it sets too soon
The dish is deep
The fire hot
Just bring the spoon.

All the stirring and a'scraping
Across the bottom of the pot
Fond will rise and mingle
With emotions running hot.

From the first light of the morning
Till the sun'll set too soon
The dish is deep
The fire hot
Just bring the spoon.
You have a hunger deep inside...
We can feed it.
Just up and come on by...
Anytime that you need it.

All those little variations
Are the spices of your life.
Take this meal off center
Walk the edges of a knife.

In the first light of the morning
When the shadows hide at noon
Till the sun is setting way too soon.

The dish is deep
The sauce is hot

So bitter sweet
And it hits the spot

The dish is deep
The sauce is hot
You just bring the spoon.
