I was bored, so I decided to parody the lyrics of WMTTB. Yes, it has a popcorn reference in it.
Hope you enjoy 'Walk Me To The Fridge' told from James' perspective late on a Friday afternoon.

Shuffling slowly to the fridge
Popcorn’s got nothing left to give
I smile at this wholesome pie
It always tempted me

The hunger leaves long shadows
Makes you shut down all your revulsions
I need pie and pie needs me
Gleaming in the light of the open fridge door
Gleaming in the light of the open fridge door

So long my fatal food
I don't want this

The pie’s gone stale under closer view
I don’t eat pie unless it's new
Hunger cramps or stomach troubles
Deceived by its looks
I still have to eat

The pie never ends the pastries start
Starbucks gives no romance
'Take me to the fridge' had another meaning
Deciding to eat at the hipster pie shop
Deciding to eat at the hipster pie shop

So long my fatal food
I don't want this to end
Into the bin you’re chucked
Still blinded by your loveliness
Walk me to the fridge
Walk me to the fridge
So long my faithful food
I don't want this

Walk me to the fridge
Walk me to the fridge

So long my fatal food
I don't want this to end
Into the bin you’re chucked
Still blinded by your loveliness
Walk me to the fridge
Walk me to the fridge
So long my faithful food
I don't want this

*applause*

I particularly loved "I still have to eat", imagining it with the echoey guitar chord coming in …

I made a great joke in the pub last night about Walk me to the bridge was actually a reworked discarded JDB lyric originally entitled Walk me to the fridge. I was about to share on twitter but first I had a google and was sent here. Initial disappointment that I wasn't the first to make the joke was replaced by 'omg this is fucking amazing'

Good job Geranium Terrorist, you are truly doing the Lords work
