about

Does your pasta want to be eaten? Then you don't have the best!

lyrics

zither here!
I'm the historian of the group
and when I'm not in a box
I drive a burgundy coupe

a long time ago
when pluto was colonized
there a being named Z
and food science was his life

so I was born inside a grinder
they made me like a tube
created to be carby
what else would you have them do

I'm organic and I'm durum
but I'm not gluten-free
so unhappy lots with unhappy guts
won't like being close to me

--

oh, we're the pluto pasta brothers
the same sheet was our mother
we will be eaten, and we won't be beaten
and we'll talk back while we're able

oh we're the pluto pasta brothers
you can make us for your lover
salt and oil and water to boil
and we'll happily join your table

now they say that when our time is near
we'll be plucked from a flat shelf
and we'll say farewell to our other selves
and wish them all good health, and good eatin'

--

zander here!
I'm a great big flirt
and when I'm not in a box
I'm wearing really tight shirts

so when you dump us in the water
it's like a day at the beach
for you it's hot, for us it's not
it hits the places we can't reach

and we love to see each other
while we're sittin in your little pool
hey zither, how's it going?
at least it's not snowing, you know?

and we'll sing our wheat-filled song for you
all through the time we cook
so get your thoughts on a pasta box
and free recipes from the book

--

oh, we're the pluto pasta brothers
the same sheet was our mother
we're gonna be eaten, and we won't be beaten
and we'll talk back while we're able

oh we're the pluto pasta brothers
you can make us for your lover
salt and oil and water to boil
and we'll happily join your table

I've had a lot of fun, I've met a lot of shapes
and now it's time for me to settle down, and uh
get a little serious about getting chewed
and get shipped to the other side of town

--

zeezix here!
I'm the leader of this shipment
and they've carried out the plan very well
I'll gonna meet 'em in a better place
because there is no pasta hell

we were raised with just one mission
to make your day a treat
we're the pluto pasta brothers
and you might eat us with meat

we're sentient strains of cylindrical grain
regular pasta's such a pain
no squeal of delight when the water's right
or when it's time about to pull us out

when it's time for eating
the thought fills us with glee
we've been trained our whole lives just to survive
the trip to your belly

--

oh, we're the pluto pasta brothers
the same sheet was our mother
we're getting eaten, and we're not getting beatn
and we talk back while we're able

oh we're the pluto pasta brothers
you can make us for your lover
salt and oil and water to boil
cause we're no longer on the table

zither here, I'm going, dears!
zander here, how grand it appears!
zeezix's time, to suffix the line!
whee!

pasta heaven, here we come!
forgot to take out my chewing gum
hope they don't think my life was dumb

PASTA HEAVEN
