I try to make the best of a shit situation
And used to wash it down with a tasty libation
But now I've found
Another way around
My single bed and it's cold and lonely covers
I can warm it up without your smothering arms around
It's a little trick I've found
I'm eating Cookies in Bed till you come over
Crumbling up the sheets till you roll me over
You're sweet
But so are my cookies
I'm eating Cookies in Bed without a lover
Licking up the chocolate beneath the covers
You're sweet
But not like my cookies
It's quarter after ten and you still haven't called me
Waiting in the nude is not so exciting
When it's been 3 hours
And I don't have psychic powers
So I get dressed and walk to the local grocery
Pick up a box of the sexiest Keebler Elves in town
They never let me down
I'm eating Cookies in Bed till you come over
Crumbling up the sheets till you roll me over
You're sweet
But so are my cookies
I'm eating Cookies in Bed without a lover
Licking up the chocolate beneath the covers
You're sweet
But not like my cookies
Num Num Num Num
I'm starting to think that I might have a problem
That I prefer a cookie to a warm-blooded human
Have the cookie crumbs
Caused every man to run
So fast away from my bed. Do I look like a psycho?
Clutching my third box of double stuffed Oreos
It's true
I like them more than you
I'm eating Cookies in Bed till you come over
Crumbling up the sheets till you roll me over
You're sweet
But so are my cookies
I'm eating Cookies in Bed without a lover
Licking up the chocolate beneath the covers
You're sweet
But not like my cookies
