"Fine Connoisseur"

From a cassette recording from 1986, “TFM.” I’ve been meaning to have some of those old cassettes digitized and re-mastered for some time now. Better do it soon, before those tapes fall apart completely!

Fine Connoisseur

© Brian Hutzell 1985

I had a very fine childhood

House was warm and good

A fine gourmet was my mom

Now she's gone

But her lesson lingers on

And I'm a fine connoisseur

Of everything pure

A kitchen pioneer

Thanks to mommy dear

Yes, I'm a fine connoisseur

A food philosopher

A kitchen atmosphere

It's a fine career

A fine connoisseur

A fine connoisseur

The best chefs in the world come to me

They seek high and low for my company

They want me to critique their delicacies

For payment, I ask for some fine pastries

And I'm a fine connoisseur

Of everything pure

A kitchen pioneer

Thanks to mommy dear

Yes, I'm a fine connoisseur

A food philosopher

A kitchen atmosphere

It's a fine career

A fine connoisseur

A fine connoisseur
