food songs: I Eat Dinner

January 9, 2008

The lyrics refer to mashed potatoes and leftovers washed down with pie. A terribly depressing song about loneliness, but with redeeming food.

And if you’re a Colin Firth fan, as I am, you can gaze at him during the singing.

Of the seven, I’ve only heard two. Cibo Matto’s White Pepper Ice Cream made the list.

Perhaps peppermint ice cream would be more in keeping with the season, but I’m always confused when a creamy, melty substance is mixed with hard, brittle bits.

From Shonen Knife. It’s not a Christmas song, not sure if it’s about food either.
