A Truly Impressive Pile Of Cheese
2025 Georgie Cooper

My friend and I
We like to cook
Try recipes 
From a book

One day he said
I found a new deli
And what they’ve got 
Will entice your belly 

So we took a trip
To the square
Where they have boutiques 
It was there

And inside next to the 
hams and salami
Was a virtual 
Dairy tsunami

CHORUS
There was a truly impressive pile of cheese
From Camembert, Edam and Brie
To Danish Blue, Munster and Feta
Gouda on top next to Mozzarella

My mouth watered
And my tummy rumbled
I envisioned how the 
cheddar would crumble

The ricotta would melt 
Into my lasagne
Or my pizza would love 
Some of that burrata

CHORUS
It was a truly impressive pile of cheese
From Camembert, Edam and Brie
To Danish Blue, Munster and Feta
Gouda on top next to Mozzarella

Well I overspent
To take some home
Maybe went too far 
On the Provolone
Or the Monterey Jack 
And the Emmental
Could have been what 
Caused my fall

Coz I tripped over
The pavement kerb
Stepped into a tub of 
Cottage with herbs
My purchases raining down 
Onto the floor
As I surveyed the heap 
I realised once more 

It was a truly impressive pile of cheese
From Camembert, Edam and Brie
To Danish Blue, Munster and Feta
Burrata on top next to Mozzarella

A Truly Impressive Pile Of Cheese

A short hello 
Link in the bio 
You know my handle
I’m not your idol

My avatar
Don’t have scars 
That IRL
I have on my four arms

I got a mindset
Like a insect 
Box in the ring 
As my preset 

It ain’t blue light 
I’m up all night 
I lay with the stress
While cursing the night sky

Too tired to sleep
Too tired to sleep
Too tired to sleep
Adjust the pillow 
Change the sheet 

The hours crawl by
A minute like five
How am I alive 
Wanna die, gonna cry
I call the helpline
Read the Headline 

I’m too tired to sleep

Life’s a circus 
That’s it’s purpose 
Fall off the tightrope 
Hyped up workers 

Too much stimuli 
For my third eye 
No time to process 
All the brain fry 

Every new day
Same headspace 
Even the zombies 
Won’t touch my face 

Green herbs?
Nothing works 
Ask the GP
Coz my body hurts 

Too tired to sleep
Too tired to sleep
Too tired to sleep
Too tired to sleep
Adjust the pillow 
Change the sheet
