Lyrics

Inspired by Joe Aro's awesome true-mailbag-jingle-take on it http://tkjingles.com/342.a this song was rattling around in my head all weekend. On a long drive home, this hook popped in my head and so I did my full length take on the toaster steak. With thanks for Joe's blessing and understanding that I am not big-footing his one true claim on Sinatra. We'll call this the Maroon Five edition (Though I had to step it down two keys, so does that make it Maroon Three?)

" Why Not Toast a Steak Tonight?"

Tony when you’re all alone
No one else is home
And you know you need to have some protein
Why not toast a steak tonight?

First you plug that toaster oven in the wall
Wasn’t that hard at all
There is nothing for you but to broil it
When you toast your steak tonight

Michael says, Dad, this will work fine
Thought teaching was his true art
Tommy Jacomo..turns up his nose
You’re breaking his gourmet heart

Tony ... how’s this working out?
Is that the smoke alarm?
Won't you please hand my that fire extinguisher?
And let’s all go to The Palm tonight

[instrumental]
E-mails, faxes and some Littles’ notes
He’ll read some now for the folks

Tony ... Don't you ever change
You won’t, that’ s your charm
Hey, where’s that free stuff from that Joe’s Stone Crab place
We’re hoping you won’t cook tonight

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just don’t toast a steak tonight

A parody of "The Way You Look Tonight" by Frank Sinatra
