[Verse 1]
Wake up
Flour on the counter
Kitchen light
Summer afternoon
Oil pops
You’re laughing
Barefoot
Saying
“Baby
Plates coming soon”
You press dough
Dust on your fingers
Flip it once
Golden and rough
I steal one right from the paper
You say
“Hey
I didn’t make enough” (hey!)
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t need a five-star table
We just need that tilted pan
Greasy lips and stories tangled
Where I end and you began
[Chorus]
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You turn this tiny place to holy
Smoke in my hair
Salt in the air
Yeah
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You feed my heart
It’s overflowin’
Right here
Right now
That’s all I care about
[Verse 2]
Cheap bread
Plastic on the handle
You cut rounds
Stack ’em in a hill
Edges curl
Little pink halos
You fry ’til the whole room fills
With that scent
Yeah
That sweet static
Sizzling like the first time we kissed
You hand me one on a paper towel
Grease stain shaped like a wish
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t need a perfect picture
Cracked mug
Secondhand pan
But every drip on this old stovetop
Spells out “I’m your biggest fan”
[Chorus]
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You turn this tiny place to holy
Smoke in my hair
Salt in the air
Yeah
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You feed my heart
It’s overflowin’
Right here
Right now
That’s all I care about
[Bridge]
Let the world chase silver spoons
We got crumbs on the floor
We’re cool (so cool)
Every burn mark on that pan
Is a page in our own cookbook proof
[Chorus]
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You turn this tiny place to holy
Smoke in my hair
Salt in the air
Yeah
Fried bannock
Fried bologna
You feed my heart
It’s overflowin’
Right here
Right now
Grease on your crown
That’s all I care about (oh yeah)
