about

Dinner is about not being able to eat and focus on your food because the person sitting next to you is unbelievably attractive and you can’t help but look... and imagine. The food doesn’t fulfil your appetite and you’d rather indulge yourself in satisfying a different kind of hunger. It’s a meditation on being lustful, but a lust born out of knowing this person, laughing with them, spending precious moments with them and finally, falling deeply in loving with them.

lyrics

Look down when you’re eating dinner 
Look at your food
Down while taking a bite, down down

Look down when he’s looking at you
No appetite
But I’d like dessert tonight

Look at your plate 
Look at your plate 
His face is not on your plate
But I’d rather lick that face 

Caught your eye again
You can tell I can’t finish this
Tell me it’s ok to waste
I waste again
Catch your eye again
Constantly looking at you
Can’t get enough of that plate
That face

That night I wished
I could come in
Hunger was rife
I know you would’ve liked my intentions

Look at your plate 
Look at your plate 
His face is not on your plate
But I’d rather lick that face 
I’d rather lick that face 
In fact I did lick that face
I wanna do it again
