Plates on the Table
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
A box of plates upon the table
Torn right open, best we're able
We didn't plan for this much cheer
But here you are, so here we are, here

[Chorus]
Colton, grab a plate and stand up tall
Tonight this kitchen's yours, that's all
Colton, we've been waiting all week long
So let the fiddle start the song

[Verse 2]
The kettle's on, the chairs don't match
Someone's found the last of the matches
Nobody cares the cloth's askew
This whole daft mess, it's here for you

[Pre-chorus]
Feel that stamping under the floor
Hear the bow against the string once more
Something in this room wants more

[Chorus]
Colton, grab a plate and stand up tall
Tonight this kitchen's yours, that's all
Colton, we've been waiting all week long
So let the fiddle start the song

[Bridge]
However far you've wandered, however far you'll roam
This is the noise that calls you home
We'll shout it till the candles fall

[Chorus]
Colton, grab a plate and stand up tall
Tonight this kitchen's yours, that's all
Colton, we've been waiting all week long
So let the fiddle start the song

[Outro]
The box is empty, plates all gone
Happy birthday, Colton, carry on
