Ricky Skaggs & Bruce Hornsby - The Dreaded Spoon (intro) lyrics

Here we go to the Tasty Freeze Or maybe Dairy Queen If so, then better lock the glove There's something in there the old man loves To break it out with a muffled shout A shout of glee and it comes out The dreaded spoon, the dreaded spoon Lord help us, it's the dreaded spoon Well, hide your cookies and hide your cakes What he giveths, away he takes He keep on scoopin' till you taste just great So better not turn your head away It's gone, gone, gone They're gone, gone, gone To the dreaded spoon Says he doesn't want a thing He's not hungry, he says with a tiny wink We come back with a big ol' cone And he makes his move and we all moan Wearing out your ice cream cake Spilling sprinkles in his wake The dreaded spoon, the dreaded spoon Lord help us, the dreaded spoon Well, hide your cakes and Sunday pies Apple fritters and curly fries Nuts and cherries piled so high Just one swipe and it's say goodbye Yes, bye, bye, bye They're gone, gone, gone Gone, gone, gone To the dreaded spoon Well, hide your cakes and sunday pies Apple fritters and curly fries Nuts and cherries piled so high Just one swipe and it's say goodbye Yes, bye, bye, bye They're gone, gone, gone Gone, gone, gone To the dreaded spoon
