How To Cook Humans
Liner Notes
this started out as an idea called "secret sauce." i thought it would be fun to do a song that was a vague recipe that doesn't tell you any information about anything. i recorded it yesterday and then hated it.
i reevaluated it today and replaced a few lyrics. it felt like it could easily be a reference to the old twilight zone episode "to serve man." and also "soylent green." and the title comes from the simpsons referencing the twilight zone.
in place of saying "it's the secret sauce," as i did on the original recording that no one will ever hear, i put in the lines "it's people, it's a cookbook" etc.
this feels like it could potentially have a place on my space rock opera, but i'm still not sold on this song. the vocals are not done particularly well. just kind of figuring the whole thing out.

Lyrics
you need a little bit of this and then
you need a little bit of that, yeah
you throw a certain kind of something
into the mix and cook it up, woo!
just a touch here
and a pinch there
you need a big ol’ dash of the stuff
you can never have enough but
i can’t tell you
i won’t tell you
i can’t tell you
i won’t tell
YOU
WHAT
IT IS
NOOOOOO
it's people
it's a cookbook
to serve man
it's a cookbook
