lyrics

Texty's in the kitchen with a bag of potatoes.
Ol' Skip is in the garden, his skinny legs a hurryin'.
There's a mission in the house tonight that's comin' true.
Texty an' ole Skip with their cookbook and their stew.

Don't burn that bread, so help me god.
Don't burn that bread, ol' friend.
Don't burn that bread, so help me god.
Don't burn that bread again.

Ol' Skip is in the kitchen, a-stirrin up the batter.
and pretty little Texty with the breadknife in her hand.
And every little chickadee is safe in the night,
for at the dinner table is a mother hen's delight.

The turkey and the cow and the great gray wolf,
and the bear and the stubborn, hateful, bitter, snarling cat.
Our brothers and our sisters, paws at the table.
Texty and ol' Skip ring the bell and serve the food.
