Best when used to mean "a quarrel."

Well lately I've been thinkin'
About some good home cookin'
Just like I haven't eaten in the longest time
Now I like potato chips, now please don't get me wrong
But I haven't tasted Mama's rhubarb pie in so very long

(Chorus)
Rhubarb pie in the summer
Rhubarb pie made by my mother
Nothing better in the winter
Than rhubarb pie after dinner

Twinkies may be better
Than a hole in the sweater
And the hole in the sweater
Beats a poke in the eye
If I had my choice I'd leave this
Gas station store
And then I'd travel back in time and
I'd sit down and have some more

(Chorus)

Looking at the picture
In the Sunday paper
Of the politician he's talkin' to the press
And he looks like he's been eating lemons all his life
Well, I think Mama's rhubarb pie could solve
More problems overnight

(Chorus 2x)

Ah take me home... whoa
I like it with a crispy crust... whoa
And the sugar on top... whoa
Oh it makes my mouth water... whoa
I'm comin' home, Mama... whoa

-Five Iron Frenzy, Rhubarb Pie
