Singapore Noodles

[Verse 1]
Paper bag in my hand
Steam on the plastic lid
I open up the box
And my whole bad day just slid

Shrimp and cabbage shining
Golden curl by curl
One bite and I’m gone
Out past the parking lot world

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need much tonight
Just that familiar sign
Red lantern, takeout window
And your chopstick line

[Chorus]
Singapore noodles
You got me good
Singapore noodles
Better than I should

Twirl me up
Pull me back
Singapore noodles
Hit just like that

[Verse 2]
Tiny cup of chili
Sit beside the duck
I’m stealing every last strand
Like I hit the lucky luck

Snow pea crunch, egg ribbons
That curry kiss of heat
I keep saying “just a little”
Then I clean the whole plate

[Pre-Chorus]
I know my order by heart
I know the bag by feel
You hand me that little fork
And I go weak for real

[Chorus]
Singapore noodles
You got me good
Singapore noodles
Better than I should

Twirl me up
Pull me back
Singapore noodles
Hit just like that

[Bridge]
Late night, closed door
Still tasting on my tongue
One box from the corner spot
And I’m young again, I’m sprung

Give me that swirl
Give me that spice
Give me that takeout magic
One more time

[Chorus]
Singapore noodles
You got me good
Singapore noodles
Better than I should

Twirl me up
Pull me back
Singapore noodles
Hit just like that
