Window Jamb – Brownies lyrics

I guess it was yesterday
during this week, anyway
there was a man
at my front door
He was quite tall
but nothing compared to the door
that swung open
as if the wind had blown
"I'm with girl scouts",
the man said
"You wouldn't be interested in
these cookies I'm selling?"

But the brownies weren't even that special in their tiny tin box
Sweet flavour of ashtray was basically the only thing I got

But then it occured to me
this weird possibility
what if the man
wasn't a man after all
What if it was that
weird creature from TV

I knew I should've
check his ID
That's a bit late now
but there's no need to cry
At least those cookies
were reasonably-priced

But the brownies weren't even that special in their tiny tin box
Sweet flavour of ashtray was basically the only thing I got
