"What's Cooking In The Kitchen" lyrics

Well, I'm home from school and ready to play
And supper is hours and hours away
So I need a snack, I'm hungry as a bear
Oh mother, dear, what've you got in there?

What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen, for me?
Is it chocolate cake?
(No, it's not)
Is it apple pie?
(No, it's not)
Is it cinnamon buns?
(No, it's not)
Oh, what have you got in the kitchen for me?

Oh mother, dear, I'm dyin' to munch
On chips and dip or Captain Crunch
Frosted flakes would do quite well
What can I eat, please mother do tell

What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen, for me?
Is it chocolate cake?
(No, it's not)
Is it apple pie?
(No, it's not)
Is it cinnamon buns?
(No, it's not)
Oh, what have you got in the kitchen for me?

Says the mother to the child
I love you so, and that's why the junk food really must go
It's filled with sugar and salt and fat
And I said stop jokin', what's wrong with that?

What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen, for me?
Is it chocolate cake?
(No, it's not)
Is it apple pie?
(No, it's not)
Is it cinnamon buns?
(No, it's not)
Oh, what have you got in the kitchen for me?

There's celery, radishes and carrot sticks
Apples and bananas, just take your pick
And I said thanks mother, it looks so good
But I think I would rather have some normal food

What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen?
(Cookin' in the kitchen)
What's cookin' in the kitchen, for me?
Is it chocolate cake?
(No, it's not)
Is it apple pie?
(No, it's not)
Is it cinnamon buns?
(No, it's not)
Oh, what have you got in the kitchen for me?

I-is it strawberry tarts? (no, it's not)
You got any homemade twinkies? (mm mmm)
What about an Oreo cookie? (nope)
You have any chocolate chip muffins? (I don't think so)
Alright, I'll settle for toast and jam (sounds good)
Do you have any strawberry shortcake? (nope)
Bout a piece of blueberry pie? (I don't think so)
Maybe a deep fried chocolate bar? (oh, nice try)
What, you must have nanaimo bars (hmmm, let's see)
How about a sugar cookie? (mm mmm)
