He makes a delicate souffle of eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, and your sweet, sweet pain. Argh! Oof!

He assaults, peppers, parsleys, sages, rosemarys, and thymes you. Eek! Eek!

He whips you like a bowl of cream. The sunshine of your love turns into the dark rain of despair. Argh! Ugh!

He beats you like a three-egg omelette. It doesn't feel too eggscelent. Eek! Ow!


He starts to throw a cleaver at you, but breaks into tears when you make fun of his little hat.

He swings a frying pan at you, but you leap out of the way. Into the fire. Except for the 'into the fire' part.

He tries to beat you like an egg, but you beat it before he can get to you.

He tries to whip you like a bowl of cream, but the sunshine of your love is too strong for him to beat.

He tries to kick it up a notch, but fails.
