Originally intended for the semi-mythical “bubblegum” album, The 12 Flavors of Hercules, to have been performed by The Captain Cooks.
Andy: “Here's the glacé cherry in your trio of Gummy Wobbles. From the 17th June 1992 says my coffee stained track sheet. This tune got a swish studio recording in New York for the kids TV show tie in album Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego, but this is your basic tryout home version, as a last ditch attempt to lure Virgin into a Dukes of Stratosphear type project. You should have seen their faces after we played them these three songs.”
Carmen Sandiego Out Of This World |
Chorus:
Cherry cherry in your tree
Jump down on the ground and make a pie with me
Cherry cherry in your tree
Jump down on the ground and make a pie with me
I got toys like the other boys
Come down from your tree now
I can set you free now
I got toys like the other boys
For baking love with you
For baking love with you
Chorus
I'm the cook who wrote the book
Pour a little soul now
Right into the bowl now
I'm the cook who wrote the book
On baking love with you
On baking love with you
Cherry in your tree now
Do you love just me now
I'm the chef of the treble clef
Roll into the flour now
Knead it for an hour now
