Lyrics
Band aids, safety pins
Tape measure and twine
Duct tape, thumb tacks
Corkscrew for the wine
Work gloves, batteries
rubber bands and old keys
Finer things and flattery
reserve for high-end cabinetry
Workhorse of the kitchen
the utility drawer
Holds junk but its so rich in
myst’ry, legend and lore
This goto never fails us
though we cram it with more
I understand the draw
of the utility drawer
Nail file, tweezers
take out menus, candles
that deck of cards from Caesars
a horde of orphaned handles
Matchbooks with digits
of nearly one-night-stands
Ticket stubs remind you
that once you did see bands
I understand the draw
of the utility drawer
holds junk but its so rich in
myst’ry, legend and lore
Workhorse of the kitchen
the utility drawer
This goto never fails us
the utility drawer
When something just don’t fit
With all others in a set
If you kept it anywhere else
You can be sure you would forget
Stuff that seems like crap?
Don’t give up on it yet
A swatch of stray burlap
makes a great plaything for a pet
Workhorse of the kitchen
the utility drawer
Holds junk but its so rich in
myst’ry, legend and lore
This goto never fails us
Though we cram it with more
I understand the draw
Of the utility drawer
[bridge]
Certain items
just shouldn’t go in there
Your finest china;
grandma’s precious silverware
Its like a city or
an Island of Lost Toys
Boist’rous, fun
full of crap, full of noise
Things are flung in
without thought
and not much care
But they wind up being the things
you wouldn’t dream of being without
(You wouldn’t dream!
Nor would you dare!)
[chorus]
I understand the draw
Of the utility drawer
Holds junk but its so rich in
myst’ry, legend and lore
Workhorse of the kitchen
the utility drawer
Its really kinda bitchin
this utility drawer
So go ahead and pitch in
One more thing you adore - hey!
You’ll understand the draw
Of the utility drawer
You’ll understand the draw
Of the utility drawer
