The Lyrics

It's been a while
Since I could
Eat at Taco Time
It's been a while
Since I first saw it
It's been a while
Since I could sit
At my own table again
And it's been a while
Since I ate nachos

And everything I can remember
Is as luscious as my dreams
To tamales I surrender
'Cause caviar's beyond my means

It's been a while
Since I could stay
A whole day at Taco Lounge
It's been a while
Since I could say
I'll have some rice as well and
It's been a while
Since I've gone and gulped things up
Just like I always do
It's been a while
But deprivation disappears when I eat two

And everything I can remember
Is as luscious as my dreams
It's a beef and bean burrito
And it's ripping at the seams

Why must I eat this way?
Just make it go away
Just one more low-fat day

It's been a while
Since I could
See my own two feet
It's been a while
Since I've eaten refries
It's been a while
Since I've seen the way
The beer sign lights your face
It's been a while
But I can still remember just the way they taste

So I go up to the waitress
And I get down on my knees (yeah I'm beggin', baby please)
For a righteous enchilada
With a side of triple cheese

It's been a while
Since I could
Go to Taco Time
It's been a while
Since I had fajitas
