The lyrics Tom Waits sang last night as I was working late:
I'll be clickin' by your house about two forty-five
Sidewalk sundae strawberry surprise,
I got a cherry popsicle right on time
A big stick, mamma, that'll blow your mind
'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you.
Baby, missed me in the alley, baby, don't you fret
Come back around and don't forget,
When you're tired and you're hungry and you want something cool,
Got something better than a swimming pool
'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you.
'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you.
See me coming, you ain't got no change
Don't worry baby, it can be arranged:
Show me you can smile, baby just for me
Fix you with a drumstick, I'll do it for free
'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you.

Here is a song called Cookie Day:
Sugar sugar candy in my mouth.
Stay home watch TV.
A cute boy singer is singing like a man.
I have nothing to do.
It's very very hot outside.
I'm lazy in my room.
I have to water the cactus on the porch.
'Cos it needs a drink.
Thinking about these kinds of things
I suddenly wanted to eat some cookies and dip them in milk.
I wanna go to the cookie shop.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
I have a postcard of a big buffalo.
I bought it during the tour.
I missed a chance to send it to you.
Back in North Dakota.
There're many pretty things in life.
Take it easy. Let it be.
I promise to send it next time to you.
Really means a lot to me.
Thinking about these kinds of things
I suddenly wanted to eat some cookies and dip them in milk.
I wanna go to the cookie shop.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
Cookie day, cookie day, it's a beautiful cookie day.
Cookie day, cookie day, oh yeah.
Also dig the cover of "Ice Cream Man" by Van Halen on their first LP.
