for some reason, i really like that new campbell’s tagline. so much so that i made it the refrain of a song.
obv this is dedicated to my double-soup brothers.
they spent the day shoveling
out on the drive
and when they came back
they were barely alive
you took them in
the red and the blue
it’s amazing what soup can do
the king was a mess
he was deep in his cups
the prince was on meth
the queen had enough
she went to the pantry
thered be no need to chew
it’s amazing what soup can do
the farmer felt lost
he looked around and around
to see the vanishing herd
that sowed salt in his ground
he took a deep breath
the sunset looked true
it’s amazing what soup can do
in paris we dined
on cured meat and cheese
you gave me a cloth napkin
whenever i sneezed
we made love in the street
i cant remember which rue
it’s amazing what soup can do
two girls on a playdate
with bows in their hair
life stretched out before them
it comes out of thin air
the one reaches for scissors
the other for glue
it’s amazing what soup can do
and when you get to the gates
and st. pete says hello
and what’s under your feet
is the whole earth below
you’ll hug and you’ll kiss
you arab, you jew
it’s amazing what soup can do
