Another song from a conversation in the slack chat. This time I didn't go back and steal lines from the conversation, but I probably should have.
Lyrics
The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult No raisins in my cookies
Why would you ruing A perfect tasty treat By putting spoilt grapes inside? You think it's chocolate chips But then you must retreat It's the worst kind of surprise
The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult No raisins in my cookies anymore
The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult I don't have to eat oatmeal
The Quaker oatmeal pack Had a limited choice Soon only plain was left The only option left Will suck away your joy 'Cause you tummy cannot digest that shit
The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult The great thing about being an adult I don't have to eat oatmeal anymore

I like the happiness in your voice and the glad guitar.
I like raisins, but I have to expect them. If I expect choc chips but they turn out to be raisins - ACK!
SlackChat always inspires, eh?

I think you are on it! It’s choice it’s choice when and what! Disgraceful state of affairs raisins pretending to be choc chips.

I am a raisin enjoyer, but I do understand the sentiment, and you delivered it with great charm.
Being technically able to fire a gun in a voting booth while drunk is also pretty cool, to he fair.
Nice work, buddy, keep going!

Hoo boy, do I relate. I married into a family that embraces all manner of delicious treats marred by interloping fruit - Christmas cake and pudding hot cross buns...
Your melody in the chorus is infectiously fun - great job on that.

lol nice one. I like that guitar lick in between verses. It's such a cool song, because it's like a childish vibe, but as adult it's like you have fun as an adult and it comes out so nicely and very amusing and fun to listen to way. Great song idea and congrats on another song. cheers.

Aw man... the raisin folks in the chat aren't happy,... but the song is excellent. Such joy here.
