Bakery Window Self-Pity Song (to " But Not For Me " by and Ira Gershwin)

They're putting cookies out

But not for me;

There's pastry all about

But not for me.

I've got to get away

There's danger if I stay

My spiking blood will pay

I guarantee.

I was a fool to turn

And walk this way;

Heigh ho! Alas! And also lackaday!

Although I can't dismiss

The mem'ry of taste bliss

I guess it's not for me.
