tough as nails and smooth as silk
i stay crispy, even in milk
i'm a roadrunner baby
the big kahuna,
i put the sauce on conte luna
i'm a froot loop , a loop garoo
there ain't nothing i won't do
...and yet
i have a soft side
call me mr. sensitive
i prance about the buttercups
i have a dozen poodle pups
bingo with my grammy dear
i put lemon in my beer
a crepe suzette with no regrets
but don't cross me
don't mess with my sister
i'm a redhot scorchin fever blister
i'm one of the monkeys
yes i'm a believer
saints be praised
yes i'm a believer
tough as nails and smooth as silk
i stay crispy, even in milk

Which came first
the poem


Or the jam?

Enquiring minds want to know.

I read a novel about a guy who worked for a tabloid. The author is Donald E. Westlake, I forgot the title.

In the novel he wrote articles like

"The beer and pototo chip diet"

the humble thread triggered it - also bennie's poem. i like "i put the sauce on conte luna." does that pasta company still exist? haven't seen it on the shelves.

yep - http://www.conteluna.com/

i liked that line, too

and

"tough as nails and smooth as silk
i stay crispy, even in milk"

and

"i'm a froot loop , a loop garoo"

and

"bingo with my grammy dear
i put lemon in my beer"

and

"i prance about the buttercups
i have a dozen poodle pups"

and

"a crepe suzette with no regrets"

and

"but don't cross me
don't mess with my sister
i'm a redhot scorchin fever blister"


geez.... did I quote the whole thing?

this begs to be read aloud

matter of fact, i just did and i'm the only one in the room.
glad for that 'cause otherwise, somebody would think i'm nuts
chanting shit like that outloud

you can eat your wheaties or your cheerios
do the dozens standing on a corner with a sandwich board
you can posture, you can testify
live on granola all day and binge at night
be as lightweight as a cornflake
as boring as shredded wheat
as inflated as Coco Puffs
but have you tried Captain Crunch?

silly rabbits you buncha kids
