lyrics

Invest in my restaurant the only favor that I want
I was your friend in high school the cool kids made fun of you
I negotiated a rate for a totally decent place
Great rapport with the landlord I already got four investors

It’s in an old hardware store
Just around the corner
From an elementary school
Moms wait in cars for their carpools

Invest in my restaurant the only favor that I want
I was your friend in high school the cool kids made fun of you
It’s in a good neighborhood lots of millionaires’ wives
Omelets for breakfast for lunch salad of endives

It’s just around the corner
From some very fancy stores
Ladies used to luxury
Like lamb kebabs and toasted seeds

Invest in my restaurant the only favor that I want
Catering in the spring summertime outdoor weddings
I’ve got a chef from Quebec got an accent like he’s French
Learned to cook at the Cordon Bleu that French cooking school

Remember when you were ridiculed
When you got kicked in middle school
They laughed at you for your hairdo
You know I’ll always be there for you
