Bread And Butter

Devo · Pioneers Who Got Scalped [2000]

He likes bread and butter

He likes toast and jam

That's what his baby feeds him

And he's a lovin' man



Well, I like bread and butter

I like toast and jam

That's what baby feeds me

I'm a lovin' man



He likes bread and butter

He likes toast and jam

That's what his baby feeds him

And he's a lovin' man



Well, she don't make mashed potatoes

She don't cook T-bone steak

She don't feed me peanut butter

She knows that I could take



He likes bread and butter

He likes toast and jam

That's what his baby feeds him

And he's a lovin' man



Well, I came home early one mornin'

And much to my surprise

She was eatin' chicken McNuggets

With some other guy



No more bread and butter

No more toast and jam

He found his baby eatin'

With another man



No, no, no, no more bread and butter

No more toast and jam

I found my baby eatin'

With some other man



No, no, no, no more bread and butter

No, no, no, no more toast and jam

No, no, no, he found his baby eatin'

With some other man



No, no, no, no more bread and butter

No, no, no, no more toast and jam

No, no, no, he found his baby eatin'

With another man



No, no, no, no more bread and butter

No, no, no, no more toast and jam, oh, no, no

No, no, no, he found his baby eatin'

With another man
