π Lyrics
Oh, I can cook too
On top of the rest
My seafood's the best in the town
And I can cook too
My fish can't be beat
My sugar's the sweetest around
I'm a man's ideal
Of a perfect meal
Right down to the demitasse
I'm a pot of joy
For a hungry boy
Baby, I'm cookin' with gas
Oh, I'm a gumdrop
A sweet lollipop
A brook trout right out of the brook
And what's more, baby, I can cook
Some girls make magazine covers
Some girls keep house on a dime
Some girls make wonderful lovers
But what a lucky find I'm
I make a magazine cover
I do keep house on a dime
I make a wonderful lover
I should be paid overtime
'Cause I can bake too
On top of the lot
My oven's the hottest you'll find
Yes, I can roast too
My chickens just ooze
My gravy will lose you your mind
I'm a brand new note
On a double dote
But just try me a la carte
With a single course
You could choke a horse
Baby, you won't know where to start
Oh, I'm an hors d'oeuvre
A jelly preserve
Not in the recipe book
And what's more, baby, I can cook
Baby, I'm cookin' with gas
Oh, I'm a gumdrop
A sweet lollipop
A brook trout right out of the brook
And what's more, baby, I can cook
Some girls make wonderful jivers
Some girls can hit a high "C"
Some girls make good taxi drivers
But what a genius is me
I make a wonderful jiver
I even hit a high "C"
I make the best taxi driver
I rate a big Navy "E"
'Cause I can fry too
On top of the heap
My crisp goes as deep as a pool
Yes, I can broil too
My ribs get applause
My lamb chops'll cause you to drool
For a candied sweet
Or a pickled beet
Step up to my smorgasbord
Walk around until you get your fill
Baby, you won't ever be bored
Oh, I'm a pΓ’tΓ©
A marrons glacΓ©s
A dish you will wish you had took
And what's more, baby, I can cook
On top of the rest
My seafood's the best in the town
And I can cook too
My fish can't be beat
My sugar's the sweetest around
I'm a man's ideal
Of a perfect meal
Right down to the demitasse
I'm a pot of joy
For a hungry boy
Baby, I'm cookin' with gas
Oh, I'm a gumdrop
A sweet lollipop
A brook trout right out of the brook
And what's more, baby, I can cook
Some girls make magazine covers
Some girls keep house on a dime
Some girls make wonderful lovers
But what a lucky find I'm
I make a magazine cover
I do keep house on a dime
I make a wonderful lover
I should be paid overtime
'Cause I can bake too
On top of the lot
