Gloppity Glue (Children's Story) Poem by Robert Smith

I make the best cookies! And you'll like them too
The secret ingredient is gloppity glue.
I start out with sugar I mix it with spice
I use a big spoon and a big bag of ice

Then I add flour and milk and some berries
Raspberries horseradish hot dogs and cherries
Mustard makes cookies so easy to chew
But they wouldn't taste right without gloppity glue.

Gloppity Glue it is so hard to find.
I go to the store and I stand in a line
Then I wait and I wait until everyone's through
So then I can purchase my gloppity glue.

It comes into season each year in the fall
I should probably tell you its not glue at all
It tastes like a mixture of pine tree and a fence
With a nutty aroma if it makes any sense

At the grocery store register I try not to be rude
Because nobody ever buys gloppity food
If they ask I'll not tell what I'm buying it for
I pay them and quickly slip out the front door



At home I unwrap my fresh gloppity glue
It's green and it's purple when you open it new
And dump it all in to the treat that I'm cooking
But I always do this when there's nobody looking

Cuz there's people out there who are quite overzealous
Who would steal the idea ‘cuz it makes them so jealous
That they'd sell our fine recipe for zillions of bucks
And deliver it to grocery stores loaded on trucks

Then we fire the oven to a million degrees!
And cover the top with nuts, honey and cheese
And then when they're done (and it does take a while)
We'll smell them and then pull them out with a smile

And then we'll eat cookies! I'll share them with you!
Cookies taste great made from Gloppity Glue!
