Owen lyrics

Some nights we forfeit a bedtime story for a silly made-up song.  Usually I give choices of goofy titles like...
A.  My dad is actually an alien
B.  The cow eats pickles for lunch
C.  I like jellybeans in my salad

Tonight I didn't have choices in me so first thing I spat out..."There is macaroni in my guacamole."  The insta-lyrics were going something like this...

I love guacamole
It's green and it's tasty
It tastes like limes and onions
And a little bit of garlic.
Some salt and pepper
and sometimes a tomato,
It's my favorite snack of all.

I love macaroni
Noodly and cheesy,
Yummy in my tummy
Is some macaroni,
But what I do not want
I never want to taste,
Is what I found in my bowl...
Macaroni in my guacamole!

Take it to the sink,
Rinse those noodles off
Get off all the green stuff
That goes on a taco.
Put some cheese back in it
And put it in a bowl
A bite of macaroni
THEN a bite of guacamole.

When I eat them separately
They mix up in my tummy

[Owen chimes in, following the tune:]
"But I don't have a tongue
Inside of my tummy.
So I don't care about that!"

Ha ha, that made me giggle!  Owen comes up with some great lines sometimes :)
