lyrics

No time to get breakfast I just had to run
Stomach was growling, light headed in the hot sun
Suddenly got homemade chocolate chip cookies from someone
Manna from heaven
Manna from heaven

Ran into my friend at El Mexicano
He picked up the check for my steak tacos with a side of avocado
He didn't even know the inside of my wallet was hollow
Manna from heaven
Manna from heaven

I've eaten from the rusty spoon
But I've eaten from a silver spoon
Albeit for a minute or two
But I've eaten from the silver spoon

Chardonnay and caviar
Fois gras and steak tartare
Not matter what it's got me feeling poor
Cause I always need a little more

And they say paradise and they say paradise
Is a recipe for disaster
But bread and butter with one another
Is the way of the master

한국에 처음 왔을때
엏떤 지역 몰라서 길을 잃었을때
엏떤 사람에게 지도를 받았어
Manna from heaven
Manna from heaven

2 년 후 떠날 준비 하면서
어쩌다 빨래하다 여권을 망쳤어
친구님의 호의로 그 집에 있었지.
Manna from heaven
Manna from heaven

Flat tire coming back from O'hare
Put a donut on a drive like I'm scared
Home safe no worse for the wear
Manna from heaven
Manna from heaven

Got a friend, people want to be her
But the grass is always always greener
Only thing she needs real bad
Is whatever she absolutely cannot have

We've eaten from the rusty spoon
We've eaten from a silver spoon
Albeit for a minute or two
But I've eaten from the silver spoon

Charred scallions and corn polenta
With just a hint of discontenta
No matter what it's got me feeling poor
Cause I always want a little more

And they say paradise and they say paradise
Is a recipe for disaster
But bread and butter with one another
Is the way of the master
