COOKIE JAR
THIS SWEET TOOTH’S GETTING THE BEST OF ME
EVER SINCE I DON’T KNOW WHEN
THOUGHT A COUPLE TIMES THAT I HAD IT KNOCKED, BUT THEN
HEARD THE BECKON CALL OF A MACAROON
OR MAYBE IT WAS CHOCOLATE CHIP
WOULD LOVE A LITTLE SUGAR ON THE TIP OF MY TONGUE AND LIPS
FINGERING THE TREASURE IN A COOKIE JAR, OH NO
BONA FIDE PLEASURE IN THE COOKIE JAR, OK
WELL OK
FORAGING AROUND IN THE KITCHEN
LIKE A SQUIRREL ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
SECRET LOVE AFFAIR WITH THE CANISTER MOTHER LODE
SO I POPPED A COUPLE PEANUT BUTTER
AND SOME OREOS AND LORNA DUNES
STICKY FINGER JUNKIE ON A SUGAR HIGH BY NOON
WHOLE LOTTA PLEASURE IN A COOKIE JAR, OH NO
FIND A HIDDEN TREASURE IN THE COOKIE JAR, OK
THE SUPERFICIAL SATISFACTIONS
THAT ALWAYS KEEP YOU PINING FOR MORE AND MORE
THE MONKEY ON YOUR BACK
WITH HIS SUGAR SMACKS
IS KNOCKING REAL HARD ON THE DOOR
a tasty Savoy-ery truffle tune from tom
Hey JK,
“But you’ll have to have them all pulled out after the Savoy Truffle…”
Glad you like.
Hope to see you soon.
Tom
So glad there is no sugar in my house because I’d be going for it NOW !
You should sell this song to Nabisco !
Maybe I don’t say this enough Tom, but your songs are so professional
I am surprised someone doesn’t scoop ’em up ! Carry on cuz ! HSW
Hey Helen,
Thanks kindly for your insights. Yeah, we really need to get into the biz head regarding all these tunes. We do love the material so much, and the process of making these tunes.
But you’re right; we have to make that happen, cuz it won’t fall out of the sky.
Hope you’re well.
Mr. Tom,
What a well written song! Maybe the best yet!!!!!! I enjoy each and every one!
Mr. Joe
Hey Mister Joe,
Tanx, ma man. They’re crafty little devils, ain’t they?
And we’re really glad such a discerning ear as yours likes them.
Tom
Really enjoyed this song! Catchy, hummable. It’s in my head now: glad we don’t have a cookie jar.
Hello Sue,
Thanks. It’s never too late to get a cookie jar.
Tom
