about

I miss the only Krispy Kreme in town which closed down years ago.

lyrics

It came not too long after I first found out
And I felt ashamed how this town did without
Just another great place that none here did know
The pleasure of watching those rings of dough
They slowly expand as the racks fall and rise
Then a quick hot oil bath, just enough for both sides
Then the glaze is poured on and it waits to congeal
Such a glorious snack, not good for a meal
But of course it was too good to last
How could something like this end so fast?

CHORUS:
Goodbye Krispy Kreme
Living on in a dream
And too many miles away
How I pray you return
Should the people here learn
That we should not eat these everyday
Such a shame that you could not stay

One doughnut could brighten the darkest of days
Even if it had naught but that sweet layer of glaze
When chocolate creme was placed on the top
That’s what made this such a great doughnut shop
With the juice of the oranges to rinse it all down
I could not keep my face in a frown
Had I just been to a funeral or even lost work
Those sweet classic doughnuts still drove me berserk
If I only knew what would come
Now I have a great void like a drum

CHORUS

Who here could see that it would not be long
Before all those doughnuts we loved would be gone?
People only want coffee, but nothing to munch
As a pleasure that comes between breakfast and lunch
A new coffee shop had taken its place
As they rubbed all their fame in the Krispy Kreme’s face
Now the only thing left to keep my hope alive
Is the next time I see one on a long drive
But locations are so hard to find
Why is it always haunting my mind?

CHORUS
