[Verse 1]
Dm F
I stopped into a restaurant and, oh, it was a dream
Dm C
From a half mile up the highway you could see the fixtures gleam
Bb F Dm
They heated up the coffee cups with extra pressure steam
C F
But the food was terrible
[Verse 2]
Dm F
The waitresses were charming, they had such lovely eyes
Dm C
Their smiles all matched exactly and their uniforms likewise
Bb F Dm
Their hair was piled as sweetly as the topping on the pies
C F
But the food was terrible.
[Verse 3]
Dm F
The decor was a symphony in orange, gold and white
Dm C
The silver and the crockery would fill you with delight
Bb F Dm
The menu was a masterpiece, so witty and so bright
C F
But the food was terrible.
[Verse 4]
Dm F
They must have spent a fortune on the furniture and such
Dm C
On the place mats and the napkins, just like linen to the touch
Bb F Dm
So the budget for the kitchen really wasn't very much
C F
And the food was terrible.
[Verse 5]
Dm F
Another generation will forget the taste of meat
Dm C
Of tomatoes from the garden and of bread that's made of wheat
Bb F Dm
And they'll never even notice, when it's plastic that they eat
C F
That the food was terrible.
