Breakfast (You Can't Take It With You When You Go)
Peering over plates of all that I have left to eat
Leering back at me, a beast who bids me: have a seat
Eyes like burning coals are kind and know the mammon's weight
But hiding in that mind is an attempt at heaven's gate
All I've found in this foreign land leads me to believe that I'm awake
All I've found in this dragon's den is yours to take, yours to take
But you can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
Orphan gold will sing of smoke and fire and death's design
Diamonds, golden rings will pale and tire and cease to shine
All I've found in this foreign land leads me to believe that I'm awake
All I've found in this dragon's den is yours to take, yours to take
But you can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
Across this white cloth I see your heart
The greed, it leaves you in fits and starts
Ornate and priceless; these things you love
No more than vices; more than enough
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
Leering back at me, a beast who bids me: have a seat
Eyes like burning coals are kind and know the mammon's weight
But hiding in that mind is an attempt at heaven's gate
All I've found in this foreign land leads me to believe that I'm awake
All I've found in this dragon's den is yours to take, yours to take
But you can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
Orphan gold will sing of smoke and fire and death's design
Diamonds, golden rings will pale and tire and cease to shine
All I've found in this foreign land leads me to believe that I'm awake
All I've found in this dragon's den is yours to take, yours to take
But you can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
Across this white cloth I see your heart
The greed, it leaves you in fits and starts
Ornate and priceless; these things you love
No more than vices; more than enough
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
You can't take it with you when you go
