lyrics
Candlelight, glass of wine, table set for two
Appetite at first sight, with our heads in the menu
You steal a glance at me as I do you
Hoping not to get caught
And if what they say is true about innocence
I better clear my head of these thoughts
Plates are down, they’re sizzling… Steam aroma rise
Olive oil to drizzle on, glistens in the moonlight
But that pepper shaker ain’t no good, no!
It’s powder fine like dust
And I’m sure you think it goes alright
But it ain’t the seasoning you can trust
Now listen, you can shake, shake, shake it honey (Shake shake shake)
You can shake, shake, shake it honey (Shake shake shake)
Move it to the left (Ooh) move it to the right (Ooh)
Up and down, all around, shake it out of sight
But I’d rather, rather…
(Aaah) Crack my peppercorn
In the morning, my peppercorn
Cover every bite, my peppercorn
Big and black as night, those peppercorns
Til the crack of dawn, my peppercorn
Concerning spice, you say its fine (say its fine, say its fine)
I know it, baby. It’s too damn fine(too damn fine, too damn fine)
I ain’t playing around with food
I ain’t playing with you
For the enemy of great is good
I hope I’m understood
Let’s call this waiter over
He’s something long like his arm
That’s a big ol’ pepper mill
And if this is your first time, just relax
And give it a twist, just give it a twist
Just a little more, a little more
Can you hear that rattle?
Can you feel it grind?
Can you feel it burn? Feel it burn!
Feel the burn! Feel the burn, feel it on your tongue tonight!
Aww you can shake, shake, shake it honey (Shake shake shake)
You can shake, shake, shake it honey (Shake shake shake)
Move it to the left (Ooh) move it to the right (Ooh)
Up and down, all around, shake it out of sight
But I’d rather, rather…
(Aaah) Crack my peppercorn
In the morning, my peppercorn
Cover every bite, my peppercorn
Big and black as night, those peppercorns
Til the crack of dawn, my peppercorn

Daniel Tedford (Ogopogo, the Willie Wagtails and Ice Cream In A Mug) is a multi-instrumental performer and singer-
songwriter.
His debut ‘Egoboo’ showcases a broad range of songwriting styles, from pop to folk-rock & blues.
Lavishly arranged with strings, woodwind and brass, it's loony, swoony and even croony at times.
