I Can Cook Too

Oh, I can cook, too, on top of the rest

My seafood's the best in the town

Yes 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 demi-tasse

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'd make a magazine cover

I do keep house on a dime

I make a wonderful lover

I should be paid overtime!

I 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 table d'hôte

But just try me à la carte

With a single course

You can 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!

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'd make a wonderful jiver

I can 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 Crisco's as deep as a pool

Yes, I can broil, too

My ribs win applause

My lamb chops will 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 paté

A marron glacé

A dish you will wish you had took

And what's more, baby, I can cook!!

And what's more, baby, I can cook!!
